I figured the drivers I installed for Lutris might have been a problem.
So I tried to undo what I did back in November when I set this puppy up
for a LAN party. I unstalled a few things

$ sudo apt remove nvidia-driver-440 libnvidia-gl-440 libnvidia-gl-440:i386
$ sudo apt remove libvulkan1 libvulkan1:i386

which also removed a lot of stuff which was unexpected, probably the
whole GNOME desktop. I attatched the list of packages it uninstalled. I
reinstalled the most important ones, such as ubuntu-desktop, rebooted
and got that weird from 4:3 to 16:9 upscaled mess of pixels I already
know from when I booted up ubuntu 16.04 the first time and I did not
have my drivers installed.

$ apt list --installed | grep nvidia
still gave me a few installed packages with nvidia drivers

then I removed one package, hoping that it would bring the others down as well. 
It did.
$ sudo apt remove nvidia-compute-utils-440
Apart form the other nvidia stuff it also took the other half of my system 
down, but somehow did not remove the drivers from my system, so I had to run 
$ sudo apt autoremove

This worked a treat, until my initramfs had to be rebuild. Somethings
went wrong with cryptsetup. (My system ist not encrypted, but I use
encrypted swap, maybe there is some problem with that?) Anyways, my
system did not boot and I had to chroot in and fix that. Rebooting. At
least, now the resolution now looks good now without nvidia drivers and
I have a half running system again. And it seems there are no nvidia
drivers running anymore. At least that worked.

I then reinstalled the nvidia-driver-440 package over the drivers applet, 
rebooted and run 
$ lsmod | grep -i modeset 
nvidia_modeset       1114112  9 nvidia_drm
nvidia              20430848  364 nvidia_uvm,nvidia_modeset

Is this expected? Is this how it should look like or do I still need to
change some more things? At this point reinstalling would have been
easier probably.
