I am using Ubuntu 21.04 and I wanted to install OpenCL in order to mine. After accidentally installing the AMD pro driver and then uninstalling it, I am now left without any driver, as reported by sudo lshw -c video:

My question is, there was a driver installed by default, so how do I get that one back? I have tried
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:oibaf/graphics-drivers
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
as well as
sudo apt-get remove ubuntu-desktop
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
followed by rebooting, but nothing has worked.
I've also tried to install amdgpu both through the installer provided by AMD and through apt, but keep getting the error:
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of amdgpu:
amdgpu depends on amdgpu-dkms (= 1:5.9.20.104-1247438); however:
Package amdgpu-dkms is not configured yet.
But trying to install amdgpu-dkms gives a similar error.
From what I've read, the official AMD drivers aren't supported with my kernel version, but I should be able to revert to the original default driver, right? I also found someone who had success with 21.04 with just installing OpenCL over the default here.
grep -E 'amdgpu|radeon' /etc/modprobe.d/* gives
/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-amdgpu.conf:blacklist amdgpu
/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-framebuffer.conf:blacklist radeonfb
/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-radeon.conf:blacklist radeon
