There is a workaround for installation of nvidia-352 from graphics-
drivers PPA: you need to specify a package version. Here are the steps,
that worked for me:
1. Remove all nvidia related packages and their configuration:
sudo apt-get purge --auto-remove $(dpkg -l | awk '$2~/nvidia/ {print $2}')
sudo apt-get purge --auto-remove bbswitch-dkms
2. Install nvidia-352:
sudo apt-get install nvidia-352=352.79-0ubuntu0~gpu16.04.2
3. Prevent nvidia-352 from future upgrading to 361:
sudo apt-mark hold nvidia-352
4. Reboot and verify that Nvidia graphics card is in use:
glxinfo | grep "OpenGL version"
