I did some poking around to see if I could figure out the root cause.  I
found there are a whole lot of differences between doing a fresh install
of 16.04 and upgrading from 14.04 to 16.04 in terms of how the system is
actually setup, so a quick let's try to find the one thing off was not
going to fly.  Another wall of sorts I hit is the Nvidia installer is a
compiled application and I did not want to take the time to reverse
engineer it in order to make sure I could replicate what it was doing
step by step in order to figure out the exact step it fails on.  A
thought I had is I could try to figure out the DKMS calls setup to
automatically re-compile the kernel module, but by this time I was
feeling pretty fed up, so I just re-installed my laptop.  With a fresh
install of 16.04, the Nvidia drivers both compiled and work without
issue as far as I can tell.  I tried installing and opening Google Earth
and glxgears and those seem to be working fine.

Another thing that broke in the 'upgrade' to 16.04 was Bluetooth
support.  Bluetooth seems to work now that the system is re-installed
from scratch.
