Comment # 6 on bug 1017755 from Michal Svec

modprobe doesn't find the nvidia module, insmod-ing it manually doesn't work:

linux-5o8j:~ # insmod /lib/modules/4.4.27-2-default/updates/nvidia.ko
insmod: ERROR: could not insert module
/lib/modules/4.4.27-2-default/updates/nvidia.ko: Unknown symbol in module
