For future reference, if anyone has the same issue I fixed it by
upgrading the driver to the version `nvidia-driver-460`.

So fix:

```
# Allow yourself to get the newest driver versions
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa
sudo apt install nvidia-driver-460
```

I also threw in a `sudo apt-get purge nvidia*` for good measure. I did
have to `cd /` otherwise the purge would fail.
