modprobe is in /sbin, which is usually not accessible to average

perform a root action. (this of course in case you are not root
already).

Thanks, Calin, for your help.
I can now do a modprobe. No idea why I couldn't before as I tried it
in root.
I've now done modprobe gspca and modprobe snd_usb_audio as suggested
by Gilboa.
Cheers
