Public bug reported:
bdmurray@flash:~$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa
[sudo] password for bdmurray:
Cannot add PPA: 'ppa:~graphics-drivers/ubuntu/ppa'.
The team named '~graphics-drivers' has no PPA named 'ubuntu/ppa'
Please choose from the following available PPAs:
* 'ppa': Proprietary GPU Drivers
Notice how the first command was missing a ~ and while that got added so
did "/ubuntu/". Manually, adding in the ~ and the command worked.
bdmurray@flash:~$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:~graphics-drivers/ppa
Fresh drivers from upstream, currently shipping Nvidia.
