The latest version of the nividia-drivers on my system is 510,for all packages newer than this the persistence daemon fails. No problem I suppose, I'll just install 510 and cuda-drivers-510. Only that doesn't work, because apparently though this package is installed it doesn't rprovide any of the xorg-video-abi virtual packages like it did in prior versions. sudo apt-get install cuda-drivers-510 Reading package lists...
