I also tried to switch to the main ubuntu server for maybe the local
mirror did not yet get the gcc update, but apt does not want to install
anything more from main.

Title:
  4.4.0-116 Kernel update on 2/21 breaks Nvidia drivers (on 14.04 and
  16.04)

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-384 package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Running fine with nvidia-384 until this kernel update came along.
  When booted into the new kernel, got super low resolution and nvidia-
  settings was missing most of its functionality - could not change
  resolution.

  Rebooted into 4.4.0-112 kernel and all was well.

  The root cause of the problem has been found to be installing the -116
  kernel without a sufficiently updated version of gcc.  In my case, my
  system received the gcc update AFTER the kernel update.

  Uninstalling the -116 kernel and reinstalling it with the updated
  version of gcc solved the problem for me.
