[mythtv-users] Video quality on 0.28 worse than it was on 0.21

[Allen Edwards]

I executed my "plan"

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers
sudo apt-get update
sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall

And autoinstall picked the 304 driver but I still see
sudo apt-get purge nvidia*configuration: driver=nouveau latency=0

Still no nevidia-settings that works so tonight I will go with part 2 of
the plan and start over with 16.04
