I'm running Ubuntu 20.04 and did the latest round of updates, and once completed I was getting to the login screen but it was just blank. I used Ctrl+Alt+F5 to get to a terminal and saw a message that there were 24 updates that could not be installed automatically so I went and checked the /var/log/unattended-upgrades and saw that they were all Nvidia related.
I did a apt uninstall --purge for everything Nvidia, rebooted and was able to login to the Gui normally, but now if I try to reinstall (even a newer set of Nvidia drivers), when I reboot, the login prompt is missing from the Gui again. I've been searching a lot of forums and trying to follow the recommended advice, but nothing seems to be helping to resolve the issue.
When I look at the additional drivers through the Gui, I can see all of the Nvidia drivers listed, but can not select them as it says 'this device is using a manually-installed driver'
Let me know what logs or system info would be helpful to diagnose further... I didn't want to fill the question with a bunch of useless info...

I did the reinstall, and honestly have no idea where I am at this point.... I was able to select the nvidia drivers again on the additional drivers GUI, but it locked me into 640x480, so I chose the Nouveau driver again hoping it would at least give me full resolution... but now I am stuck back on that setting, still in 640x480 and all of the Nvidia drivers are greyed out again...

Also infi -F shows the following:

If I could just get off 640x480 resolution and get my other monitors working I would be happy for now...
