Yes, there is:
1. To try PPA:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nvidia-304=304.134-0ubuntu0.16.04.1 \
nvidia-opencl-icd-304=304.134-0ubuntu0.16.04.1 \
libcuda1-304=304.134-0ubuntu0.16.04.1 \
nvidia-settings=375.26-0ubuntu0~gpu16.04.1 \
libxnvctrl0=375.26-0ubuntu0~gpu16.04.1
2. To revert:
sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/graphics-drivers-ubuntu-ppa-xenial.list
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nvidia-304=304.131-0ubuntu3 \
nvidia-opencl-icd-304=304.131-0ubuntu3 \
libcuda1-304=304.131-0ubuntu3 \
nvidia-settings=361.42-0ubuntu1 \
libxnvctrl0=361.42-0ubuntu1
(Note 1: This recipe is valid now. It refers specific versions that are
in Ubuntu 16.04.1 and in PPA _now_. Not sure if it will work later, if a
repository removes old versions.)
(Note 2: Every command looking like:
part1 \
part2 \
… \
lastPart
-- is a single command. You can either paste it all-at-once, or line-by-line
(last line is without "\", other lines must end with "\"). Or you may merge it
into single line _with removing slashes_ ("part1 part2 … lastPart").)
But, as 304.131 works for you, you have no need to explicitly upgrade to
304.134. Just wait until 304.134 will appear itself. (Sorry, first I
didn't realize that 304.131 works for you.)
