I have a laptop with an NVIDIA Optimus graphics card and in my
experience what always solved problems with the drivers was to purge all
nvidia packages and reinstall them. A bit drastic but so far it always
worked:
1. Purge all packages (but always check and be careful):
aptitude purge '~invidia'
2. Reboot
3. Re-install the driver:
apt install [-t bullseye-backports] nvidia-driver
4. Reboot
Consider installing from bullseye backports if you want newer versions.
But a word of advice, if I may: have a look at the NVIDIA PRIME Render
Offload [1].
This should be the recommended method to use since Debian Bullseye,
nowadays bumblebee/pvkrun should be used only if the official NVIDIA
PRIME Render Offload does not work. On my laptop it works out of the
box, with Steam as well. Have a look at the wiki [1], see if you can
make your graphics card work with this method.
