I removed packages that were clearly from a different driver version.

For some reason, vulkan does not work, seems to only use llvmpipe:

$ vulkaninfo --summary
Can't open bumblebee display.
ERROR: [Loader Message] Code 0 : loader_scanned_icd_add: ICD libnv_vulkan_wrapper.so.1 doesn't support interface version compatible with loader, skip this ICD. WARNING: [Loader Message] Code 0 : terminator_CreateInstance: Failed to CreateInstance in ICD 3.  Skipping ICD.

I have no idea, what to do and to check - I found no relevant information when googling.  Should I uninstall something, install something more or do something completely different?
