Hi Tim,

So there's a couple issues, we don't have unlimited space and the
kernel branch your on "4.1.1-ti-r2", will be seeing 1 or 2 releases a
week for the next year...

Headers can be installed via:

sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`

So r3 is available: (it'll be gone next week)

sudo apt-get update;
sudo apt-get install linux-image-4.1.2-ti-r3 linux-headers-4.1.2-ti-r3

But it would be best to actually install:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install linux-image-4.1.4-ti-r9 linux-headers-4.1.4-ti-r9
sudo reboot

As there has been tons of fixes since r2..
