Check also your grub boot line. Nvidia installer can modify that too.
If you are using Xorg, you'd also need to remove config file generated by Nvidia for it.

You'd have Mesa, but you might be missing AMD firmware which is necessary for GPU to work. You can install latest one manually or look for a package for it. In Debian / Ubuntu it's firmware-amd-graphics but it's usually pretty outdated and upstream versions are preferable.
To update it manually on Debian based distros, you can do something like this:
#!/bin/bash
base_dir="$HOME/archive"
firmware_dir="linux-firmware"
firmware_branch=${firmware_branch:-"main"}
mkdir -p "$base_dir"
cd "$base_dir"
git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git "$firmware_dir"
cd "$firmware_dir"
git checkout "$firmware_branch"
git pull --rebase --prune
sudo cp -v amdgpu/*.bin /usr/lib/firmware/amdgpu/
sudo chown root:root /usr/lib/firmware/amdgpu/*.bin
sudo update-initramfs -u -k all

Shmerl, I'll look into it. But, the kernel messages
are not reporting any missing firmware
