I installed the following PPA:
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/graphics-drivers/ppa/ubuntu/ xenial main
performed an update but apt-get is unable to find a package that is listed. If you check here,
https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa?field.series_filter=xenial
you'll see a number of nvidia-graphics-drivers-xyz available for xenial. However, apt-get doesn't recognize them at all.
Here is some information showing the state of my machine,

I'm suring that I'm missing something simple and obvious but I'm missing it. Packages are listed on the PPA website for xenial. I have the PPA installed and performed an update yet it's not finding the package.
I've looked at related posts but have not found a solution...
Anybody see the obvious that I'm missing?
