I wish I had known about all these problems with Nvidia’s shit on Linux and gone with a new AMD GPU instead of a 3070Ti. I HAD been using AMD/Radeon since the late-00s, I don’t know WTF was wrong with me. Nvidia wasn’t this bad in the early 2000s. It was the only way to run hardware-accelerated Unreal Tournament on Linux at the time.
Two years ago I made the switch to AMD when I needed to replace my ageing 1060 (still on Windows back then) and I’m so glad I did because I avoid all of the headaches with getting Nvidia to work on Linux
Mine works fine. Never did check which drivers I’m using though. I like the cuda cores for davinci resolve, and dlss for games that struggle on my ultra wide monitor (looking at you, cyberpunk)
If it wasn’t for those 2 things I will be gone next card refresh. Truthfully the main reason I went Nvidia in the first place was old habits. ATI/AMD traditionally had no driver support for Linux, or at least worse than Nvidia who actually had an official driver package. Things have changed though.

Voodoo cards had glide, that ut99 supported. Worked great.
