In case anyone has advice, the lines I get are:

  (EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialise NVIDIA kernel module!
  (EE) NVIDIA(0): *** aborting ***
  (EE) Screen(s) found, but none have usable configuration

The cause may be a kernel configuration line which I changed
without realising its whole effect.  I'm using Nvidia version 6629 .

Thanks to everyone who has replied: I will investigate further myself.
