XFree86 cannot initialize NVdriver



I am having problems setting up XFree86 with the nvidia drivers.
I can get all of the packages to install correctly but when I 
try and run X. I get the following error.

From XFree86.0.log:
(EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the NVdriver kernel module!
(EE) NVIDIA(0):  *** Aborting ***
(II) UnloadModule: "nvidia"
(II) UnloadModule: "vgahw"
(II) Unloading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/libvgahw.a
(EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration.

If I run modprobe I get
modprobe: Can't locate module NVdriver

I have the following in /etc/modultils/nvidia-kernel-2.2.19
alias char-major-195 NVdriver

I have NVdriver in
/lib/modules/2.2.19/kernel/drivers/video

Does anyone know of a solution?
