Nvidia drivers won't install correctly

I’ve just installed a fresh dinit install and I don’t seem to be able to install the Nvidia drivers correctly. I’ve installed linux-headers and I’ve tried both nvidia and nvidia-dkms though both seem to give me the same error on boot.

On boot, dinit says that the service “modules” failed to load:
Code: [Select]
dinit: Service modules command failed with exit code 123
And when I execute the command manually;
Code: [Select]
modules-load
I get:
Code: [Select]
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'nvidia_uvm': No such device

Like I said I’ve tried this both with the nvidia package and the nvidia-dkms package though I get the same result using either.

EDIT: Reinstalling the kernel fixed it
