Public bug reported: Saturday night at about 03:00 UTC I noticed that an update to my system (Hirsute / 21.04) would no longer properly work with my NVidia RTX 3060; I was left in very low resolution mode. When I ran Additional Drivers, the screen indicated that I had manually installed graphics drivers and I could not select the official and tested NVidia drivers. I am assuming these "manually" installed drivers were a part of a system update as I did nothing to install any drivers on my own.
I found a suggestion to run "apt purge nvdia-\*", which I did. When I rebooted, I was able to select the "Using NVIDIA driver metapackage from nvidia-driver-460 (proprietary,tested), and my screen resolution and general behaviour seemed fine from that point on. In case it doesn't come through in the uploaded files, here are the lines from /var/log/dpkg.log relating to my purge: 2021-04-10 20:28:09 startup packages purge 2021-04-10 20:28:09 purge nvidia-compute-utils-460:amd64 460.67-0ubuntu1 <none> 2021-04-10 20:28:09 status config-files nvidia-compute-utils-460:amd64 460.67-0ubuntu1 2021-04-10 20:28:09 status not-installed nvidia-compute-utils-460:amd64 <none> 2021-04-10 20:28:09 purge nvidia-prime:all 0.8.16.1 <none> 2021-04-10 20:28:09 status config-files nvidia-prime:all 0.8.16.1 2021-04-10 20:28:09 status not-installed nvidia-prime:all <none> 2021-04-10 20:28:09 purge nvidia-kernel-common-460:amd64 460.67-0ubuntu1 <none> 2021-04-10 20:28:09 status config-files nvidia-kernel-common-460:amd64 460.67-0ubuntu1 2021-04-10 20:28:09 status triggers-pending initramfs-tools:all 0.139ubuntu3 2021-04-10 20:28:09 status not-installed nvidia-kernel-common-460:amd64 <none> 2021-04-10 20:28:09 purge linux-modules-nvidia-460-5.11.0-13-generic:amd64 5.11.0-13.14+2 <none> 2021-04-10 20:28:09 status config-files linux-modules-nvidia-460-5.11.0-13-generic:amd64 5.11.0-13.14+2 2021-04-10 20:28:10 status not-installed linux-modules-nvidia-460-5.11.0-13-generic:amd64 <none> 2021-04-10 20:28:10 purge nvidia-settings:amd64 460.56-0ubuntu2 <none> 2021-04-10 20:28:10 status config-files nvidia-settings:amd64 460.56-0ubuntu2 2021-04-10 20:28:10 status not-installed nvidia-settings:amd64 <none> Note the time shown is Vancouver/Canada Pacific Daylight. It may be worth mentioning that nouveau doesn't recognize the RTX 3060 (I understand that this is a very recently released video card).
