I have gone for a full day to almost all driver versions.
Some failed to compile some not. Most promising is 535.
Here is a b rief system check after I did:

 1859  sudo apt autoremove
 1860  sudo apt autoclean
 1861  sudo apt install --reinstall linux-headers-$(uname -r)
 
1862  sudo reboot  
 1897  sudo apt install nvidia-driver-550
 1898  sudo apt install nvidia-driver-535
 1899  sudo apt install -y libnvidia-cfg1-535:amd64

marius@tpp:~$ lsmod | grep nvi
marius@tpp:~$                  ### <<<   EMPTY

marius@tpp:~$ dkms status
nvidia/535.183.01, 6.8.0-40-generic, x86_64: installed
marius@tpp:~$ 

marius@tpp:~$ nvidia-smi 
NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running.
marius@tpp:~$ sudo nvidia-smi 
NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running.

I really ran out of options. Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.
All commands were typed over ssh shell into a remote desktop.
