This looks to be an issue with an update that Ubuntu have pushed for the proprietary nvidia driver: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-restricted-modules-hwe-5.11/+bug/1943086
Transferring to System Settings since Drivers are moving out of AppCenter
What Happened
AppCenter notified me of some updates, so I updated, before update I saw that it is going to install a new kernel version, so after the update finished I restarted the computer, after restart the Xorg session wasn't being able to be started. I restarted the system again with the older (5.11.0-27-generic) kernel version that was available, it worked. Then I thought that removing and reinstalling the nvidia proprietary drivers would fix the problem, but it didn't, because for some reason the required nvidia driver isn't available in the new required kernel version.
Expected Behavior
The kernel only be updated if all the system drivers would work properly, because a newbie person wouldn't be able to know what have happened to their computer, if after a restart just a black screen appears.
Steps to Reproduce
Logs
AppCenter showing that I can't re-install the Nvidia drivers.
Obs: AppCenter log that is in the small dialog is bellow
Xorg log (this is the log when I was in the newer kernel version and manually run startx in another tty): /var/log/Xorg.0.log
