A week or two ago, Software Updater started offering me version
304.134-0ubuntu0.16.10.1

It had never offered me the "fixed" version 304.132-0ubuntu2, but only
the original version 304.132-0ubuntu1, which did not load into the
kernel (with the mtrr_add and mtrr_del errors).

I tried the 304.134-0ubuntu0.16.10.1 version offered, and it fails just
like 304.132-0ubuntu1.

Somehow, the fix never made it into my distribution repositories, and
was not incorporated into the new 304.134-0ubuntu0.16.10.1 version.

I still am forced to use an older version ( 304.131-0ubuntu5 ) in order
to have an nvidia driver that both loads into the kernel, and allows
Hugin to run correctly...

Title:
  Could not insert module

Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-304 package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-304 source package in Yakkety:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Ubuntu release: 16.10 Yakkety Yak
  Kernel version: 4.8.0-22-generic x86_64
  Package version: 304.132-0ubuntu1

  The nvidia module cannot be loaded. The following errors are reported:
  Could not insert module Unknown symbol in module

  and:

  nvidia: Unknown symbol mtrr_del (err 0)
  nvidia: Unknown symbol mtrr_add (err 0)

  It looks like the buildfix_kernel_4.3.patch, which is supposed to be
  dealing with those calls, is not applied in this release of the
  package.

  The package was working fine with the previous fully updated Ubuntu
  version 16.04 prior to the upgrade to 16.10.
