Hello @FlufferyAutism, does any 32 bit OpenGL application like glxinfo from a 32 bit build of mesa-utils work? Unfortunately, Ubuntu doesn't provide a 32 bit builds of this package on 20.04, so maybe try unpacking https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/i386/mesa-utils/download with an archive utility and using the utility without installing it to the system.

I suspect that you're using the nVidia proprietary driver, but don't have the video driver's 32 bit userspsace installed.

The nVidia proprietary driver requires that that the running kernel module, 32 bit userspace libraries, and 64 bit userspace libraries are all installed and have exactly the same version to work properly. Since you're using the 465 series driver, you should be able to check the userspace libraries with something like apt policy libnvidia-gl-465 libnvidia-gl-465:i386 and install the 32 bit userspace libraries with something like sudo apt install libnvidia-gl-465:i386.
