Make sure you have "main" included in your list of packages from the ubuntu repo.
If you only did a minimal installation, you may not have had the main package

Ubuntu provides 4 repositories –
Main
Multiverse
Restricted
Universe

A version of dkms from main is required by evdi

Also check if you have secure boot turned on, if yes, you will need the DKMS & EVDI to be signed correctly in order to load them into the kernel via DKMS.
or turn off UEFI secure boot.
