Elder Scrolls Oblivion and Ubuntu Mate 20.04, Worked before, now doesn't detect Nvidia

[a1872]

Hi. I have the Geforce 1030 and have played Oblivion on this computer many times. The only OS I have is Ubuntu Mate 20.04. The game does not detect the Geforce, and after clicking play, there is an error about not detecting a renderer I have attached the screenshots of both issues--there is nothing to select for the card or resolution. I have tried to uninstall and purge all Nvidia files, reboot, install the Nvidia-470 driver files, reboot, then start the game again with no luck. On the Additional Drivers screen, Nvidia-515 driver is listed, but with this version, I get stuck in a Login Loop. Since the 470-version was the one that worked for a long time, I removed the 515 and went back to Nvidia-470. After this process, the game worked normally, but then when started again, gave the error you see. I also have SpaceEngine, and that game works fine--I haven't found any other game besides Oblivion and a Vietnam game that has a problem.
