The updated package worked

20.04, GTX 1650
Driver 440.100

Monitor: 4K, 32".

This a new setup - the screen is large enough that 100% is kind of usable, 
although the GUI fonts of GTK apps (gnome shell, darktable) was in general too 
tiny - with the Trevino's patch I could now set the resolution to 125% but then 
found that the ubuntu GUI became too large. 
Ideally, I noticed that a of 110% scale or so, like my mac does on the same 
screen, works best.

In case it helps anyone: if you prefer scaling at 100% but want larger
fonts in most apps

Gnome Tweaks > Fonts > Scaling Factor = 1.1
Firefox > about:config > layout.css.devPixelsPerPx = 1.1  (Preferences > 
General > Zoom > Default: 100%)
Terminal / Tilix > Fonts > Inconsolata 14px
