Default trouble with modprobe

after istalling module-init-tools on debian with kernel 2.6.8.1, I was
able to load and unload modules for a little bit until I rebooted and
now all of a sudden when I do an lsmod it shows no modules and if I
try to use modprobe it says:
FATAL: Module <module> not found. no matter what module I try to
load. Any ideas on what is going on or how I could debug this?

thanks,
-Nate
