According to the supported products at https://www.nvidia.com/en-
us/drivers/unix/ 390 is the highest driver that support your GPU.I
wonder why you did not get that installed automatically instead of the
really old 340.

You should try to install 390, and you do not need the PPA for that.

However for those that can use 440 and want the newest 440.82 apt
pinning works.

Create a file named /etc/apt/preferences.d/priority-nvidia with this :

Package: *
Pin: release o=LP-PPA-graphics-drivers
Pin-Priority: 1000

Check the policy with

apt-cache policy nvidia-driver-440

and then install the driver.

Can the version in the PPA for 440.82 in 20.04 please be bumped so its
higher than 440.82+really.440.64?
