Did this. ls shows nvidia files.

Says no packages found matching <each of the files shown by ls>
To clear it says it can't find any of the nvidia files shown by ls.

The last few lines say: Failed to fetch
http://extras.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dist/trusty/Release. the error is NO_PUBKEY
> sudo apt --no-install-recommends install nvidia-304*131*deb nvidia-settings_331*deb
Says unable to locate nvidia-304*131*deb
Says can't find by regrex nvidia-304*131*deb
So I typed the full name of the file out as shown by ls, still says it
can't locate it
Just to be sure I typed in the commands you gave me multiple times to be
sure that there were no typos.
regards, Jim
