Can you be more specific on the error message?
One problem that I have quite often with "make xconfig", is I
start XWindows with my normal user, and then "su -" to root, and
then "make xconfig" aborts if I forget to set the DISPLAY.
If you are doing the same thing, run the command:
export DISPLAY=:0
before you do the "make xconfig".
