Hello,
I ran into an issue, when mintdrivers
shows No drivers needed in spite I have an Nvidia 1060 card, for which I manually installed latest available official driver from repository with command:
$ sudo apt-get --install-recommends install nvidia-driver-550
My Linux Mint version is 21.3 Cinnamon 64-bit (non-edge version) but with installed kernel version 6.5.0-35-generic.
If I run it from terminal, there is information that my NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 Mobile device is being ignored:
$ mintdrivers
$ Checking Internet connectivity...
--> Computer is online
Updating cache
Cache updated
Ignoring device: NVIDIA Corporation: GP106M [GeForce GTX 1060 Mobile] (manually_installed)
Your computer does not need any additional drivers

If you needed any additional info, suffice to reply, notifications I have enabled.
Let me just note, that I will not reboot this machine unless absolutely necessary.
Cheers!
PS1: I report this only for other users to have it resolved. I myself do not use Mint's Driver Manager.
