Another related issue: I manually installed the latest nvidia graphics
driver (460.67) for my GPU (1080ti), tried it out, still choppy,
reverted to nouveau, restarted, all good. However the 'additional
drivers' pane is wrong again, saying I'm continuing to use a manually
installed driver, when I'm using Nouveau. Screenshot attached. Will
attach logs of whatever people need, upon request.
