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:

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).
