Did you manage to solve this. I have the same issue now.
Before it was working on my 5.4 kernel (Ubuntu 20.04), but then I
installed the 5.8 kernel to test something, and purged nvidia.
Now when I return to 5.4 kernel and want to switch to the same nvidia
that was working ("Using nvidia driver metapackage from nvidia-
driver-440 (proprietary, tested)") I get the error as in the attachment.
