looks like your compiling the source as a different user then yourself, you can't do that if you want to use X config. don't compile the kernel as root, its not necessary nor desirable. (there is no reason to keep kernel source in /usr/src either, unless you have personal preference for it, in that case add yourself to group src and untar the kernel source as you and not root) -- Ethan Benson http://www.alaska.net/~erbenson/
