I don't think this is a kernel problem, it looks like modprobe is trying to load a module named "off" which does not exist. I'm wondering if you have some kind of strange aliases defined in /etc/modprobe.d, something like 'alias nouveau off'. Can you check the files in there, and if you find something like that comment it out and try again?
