RE comment #10 and my own comment #9:

I tried again and can confirm that nomodeset works with kernel 4.4.0-47 and nvidia-367.57.

System boots into xorg with the nvidia drivers in use and working completely.

My mistake was that I had left the following line in /etc/default/grub:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""

So this is what it needs to look like:

#GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"
#GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="nomodeset"
