as a temporary workaround I installed the drivers manually
`
apt-get install build-essential -y
curl -O 
http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/367.57/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-367.57.run
chmod +x ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-*.run
./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-*.run -q -a -n -X -s
`

Title:
  Amazon EC2 instances broken

Status in NVIDIA Drivers Ubuntu:
  New
Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-367 package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I have installed nvidia-367 package because it is required by the
  Amazon Ec2 instance type g2.2xlarge. They are using an older Nvidia
  card (GRID K520) which is supported by nvidia-367 driver. This driver
  does now install nvidia-375. That driver does not support the
  g2.2xlarge instance card. I cannot use the gfx now on the g2
  instances.
