i can confirm this bug exists on 22.04.1 too,

$ apt-cache show xserver-xorg-core | grep -E '(Package|Version|Provides)'
Package: xserver-xorg-core
Version: 2:21.1.3-2ubuntu2.5
Provides: xorg-input-abi-24, xorg-video-abi-25, xserver-xorg-video-modesetting
Package: xserver-xorg-core
Version: 2:21.1.3-2ubuntu2
Provides: xorg-input-abi-24, xorg-video-abi-25, xserver-xorg-video-modesetting

this shows that the abi-24 provider exists, but upon installing cuda 10.2 (the latest version which supports my gpu) the error below comes up.

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 xserver-xorg-video-nvidia-440 : Depends: xorg-video-abi-24 but it is not installable or
                                          xorg-video-abi-23 but it is not installable or
                                          xorg-video-abi-20 but it is not installable or
                                          xorg-video-abi-19 but it is not installable or
                                          xorg-video-abi-18 but it is not installable or
                                          xorg-video-abi-15 but it is not installable or
                                          xorg-video-abi-14 but it is not installable or
                                          xorg-video-abi-13 but it is not installable or
                                          xorg-video-abi-12 but it is not installable or
                                          xorg-video-abi-11 but it is not installable or
                                          xorg-video-abi-10 but it is not installable or
                                          xorg-video-abi-8 but it is not installable or
                                          xorg-video-abi-6.0 but it is not installable
i'm downgrading to 20.04 for now.
