For me, this solution from NVIDIA forums solved the issue.
Run sudo apt purge nvidia* libnvidia*
Then sudo apt install nvidia-driver-520

I was facing same problem and I'm posting here my solution.
In my case NVRM version was 440.100
and driver version was 460.32.03
. My driver was updated by sudo apt install caffe-cuda
and I didn't notice that time but I checked it from /var/log/apt/history.log
.
By following my NVRM version I just used sudo apt install nvidia-driver-440
but it installed 450.102, I don't know why it installed other version and nvidia-smi
is showing 450.102.04
.
Anyhow after rebooting my PC everything including cuda is working fine now.
I didn't remove/purge anything related to nvidia driver. Version 460.32.03
was uninstalled automatically by running sudo apt install nvidia-driver-440
