nvidia-driver-440 also currently has this dependency:
nvidia-dkms-440 (= 440.64-0ubuntu3) | nvidia-dkms-440 (=
440.82+really.440.64-0ubuntu4)
The first branch is satisfied by the lrm packages and the second branch
is satisfied by the real nvidia-dkms-440 package, which means that apt
install nvidia will always select some lrm provider but not necessarily
the one that matches your kernel.
We should reverse this order so that apt picks the "safe" default of the
real nvidia-dkms package.
This will become obsolete with the next upload of nvidia, since the real
and virtual package versions will again line up.

I was expecting for it to pick linux-modules-nvidia-440-generic-
hwe-20.04 not linux-modules-nvidia-440-lowlatency-hwe-20.04
As if it sorted things and picked last one?
