nVidia driver not loading

With my problem (update rather than new system), Xorg log shows
similar oddities (my view)
E.g.
LoadModule "nouveau"
Loading /usr..... /nouveau_drv.so
...
LoadModule "nv"  # is this the Nvidia module????
Warning, couldn't open module nv

Failed to load module "nv" (module does not exist, 0)


regards
