Check to see if you have a symbolic link "nvidia" in /usr/lib/nvidia which eventually points to /usr/lib/nvidia/current/nvidia_drv.so And if you're trying to install the nvidia graphics driver, modprobe isn't the way to do it, at least, on Wheezy. You need to create an xorg.conf file in /etc/X11 and blacklist the default driver, most likely nouveau, in /etc/modprobe.d, then reboot. Google for the specific instructions.
