Selected nvidia driver gets reverting automatically to nvidia-driver-418

id flag

I have to install cuda 10.1. For which I need nvidia-driver-x where x>418. So, I opened the software and update and change it to the using NVIDIA driver metapackage from nvidia-driver-465(propritory). However, it keeps automatically reverting back to using NVIDIA driver metapackage from nvidia-driver-418(propritory). I decided to manually install it using sudo apt install nvidia-driver-460. However, I got

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
