libkmod: Error ../libkmod/libkmod-config.c:686 kmod_config_parse: /etc/modprobe./blacklist-nouveau.conf line 5 ignoring bad line starting with 'alia'

Phone picture of error

I started getting this recently then today it fails to boot into Ubuntu just giving me a blank desktop background. I think it has to do with this manual way I went about installing the nvidia drivers? If it is how is the normal process for installing the drivers because this process is awkward to say the least!

How do I install the Nvidia driver for a GeForce GT 630

It seems that the file /etc/modprobe/blacklist-nouveau.conf contains the invalid verb alia in line 5 which should probably be alias. Are you sure you copied the code listing from the referred answer correctly? It should read:

blacklist nouveau
blacklist lbm-nouveau
options nouveau modeset=0
alias nouveau off
alias lbm-nouveau off
