Calling "ubuntu-drivers install" picks the correct UDA driver. I also
tested specifying the driver manually, with "ubuntu-drivers install
nvidia:440-server", and I got the correct driver again.

Title:
Add support for the new NVIDIA -server driver series
Status in ubuntu-drivers-common package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in ubuntu-drivers-common source package in Bionic:
In Progress
Status in ubuntu-drivers-common source package in Focal:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
SRU Request:
[Impact]
The ubuntu drivers tool requires support for the new NVIDIA -server
series (introduced by LP: #1881137)
As already made possible when passing in the "--gpgpu" to the
"install" argument, ubuntu drivers should be consistent and allow
specifying a driver series regardless of whether the --gpgpu argument
is used or not. The new parser code takes care of this.
[Test Case]
1) Enable the -proposed repository, and install the new ubuntu-
drivers-common (0.8.4~0.20.04.1).
2) Check that specifying an NVIDIA driver flavour works (e.g. "ubuntu-
drivers install nvidia:440", if your card is supported by the driver)
3) Restart your computer, and see if everything works correctly when
accessing the desktop.
4) Remove all the nvidia drivers:
sudo apt-get --purge remove '*nvidia*'
5) Test the auto-detection:
ubuntu-drivers install
6) Restart your computer, and see if everything works correctly when
accessing the desktop.
7) Check that the correct driver was installed for your card:
ubuntu-drivers debug
[Regression Potential]
Medium-Low. The new code should not affect the current functioning of the
ubuntu-drivers tool.
