GTX 1060 6GB and Kernel 5.10

I’m on a system with the graphics card GTX 1060 6GB. I just tried upgrading to kernel 5.10. However, I did get the error message:

failed to start light display manager

It seems like there is no linux510-nvidia driver available for me.

Have support been dropped, as commented here by @philm : [solved] Failed to initialize the NVIDIA kernel module? Or, am I missing something here?

The support for that GPU is still trough the 455 drivers, but their name is now video-nvidia.
Read again the wiki from the announcement


You will notice mentioned there what to do if things are still not consistent.
