ln -s /usr/src/love-sources /usr/src/linux
If you have problem deleting the old one, use rm /usr/src/linux without the trailing slash. |

this is interesting, when i did that it created a dir "love-sources", which was linked to the /usr/src/love-sources, within the linux dir. 
I solved it by copying the love-source folder withink the linux folder to /usr/src and renaming it |

 Well, as long as you solved it... It never did that to me though. |
