Zesty nvidia-364 (and presumably older) packages

 

I noticed that there are nvidia-364 packages built for Zesty, but they
don't appear to be patched to install with newer (4.7+?) kernels such as
the one included with Zesty.

I'd love a 364 package that did work with the newer kernels because
there is a bug
(https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/968193/linux/370-28-980m-ubuntu-16-10-error-gpu-0-idling-display-engine-timed-out/)
that's prevented 367 and newer from working at all with my 6700hq/980m
powered Clevo p650-RG laptop.  So, I constantly have to go back to 364
and the 4.4 kernel each time I unsuccessfully test a newer package.  A
working 364 kernel would allow me to continue testing newer zesty kernels.
