Kernel 4.12.0-11 is just an example. As root:

If:
modprobe: FATAL: Module nvidia_367 not found in directory /lib/modules/4.12.0-11-generic

Do:
locate nvidia |grep ".ko" |tail -n1
Use returned path to create the link

ls /lib/modules/4.12.0-11-generic/
cd /lib/modules/4.12.0-11-generic/
for x in $(find /lib/modules/4.12.0-11-generic/updates/dkms/ -name "*.ko"); do ln -s $x ; done
for x in $(ls *.ko |cut -d\. -f1); do echo modprobe $x ;done

reboot
