What is the recommended way to install NVidia drivers with an updated kernel on Ubuntu 20.04? Installing via apt does not work. I get following error at the end of the installation
# sudo apt install nvidia-driver-495 -y
...

Here's some info on my hardware (laptop is a Lenovo P15S Gen1 AFAIK)
# uname -r
5.15.1-051501-generic
# lspci | grep -E "VGA|3D"
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation UHD Graphics (rev 02)
2d:00.0 3D controller: NVIDIA Corporation GP108GLM [Quadro P520] (rev a1)
# lscpu | grep -i model
Model name: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-10510U CPU @ 1.80GHz
Model: 142
Currently I am running with the Intel GPU which is fine, but I would really love to not constantly carry around a dedicated NVidia GPU without using it.
Looking into /var/lib/dkms/nvidia/495.44/build/make.logI have this at the end of the file

I had the same issue with older drivers. It seems that the mainline kernel requires glibc to be at least v2.33 which is only available in Ubuntu 21.04 as of now.
