If I understand correctly, if I am using a cedarview product and load Ubuntu
12.04.2, the following additional steps must be done.

linux_image-3.2.0-38-generic-pae and he corresponding headers file

What I mean by manually, is that I had to use a tty and run apt-get on
cedarview-drm
libva-cedarview-vaapi-driver
