I'm having problems with my dual display since moving to 21.04
The additional drivers tab shows nothing.
I've got the correct NVIDIA driver installed.

Thanks for your input
I've followed your help, and here's the result:
$ dkms status nvidia
nvidia, 390.143, 5.11.0-18-generic, x86_64: installed
$ uname -r
5.11.0-18-generic
Then the log file has these lines:
[ 102.764] (II) LoadModule: "nvidia"
[ 102.806] (WW) Warning, couldn't open module nvidia
[ 102.806] (EE) Failed to load module "nvidia" (module does not exist, 0)
UPDATE
I've fixed it - I just don't know how!
