   By the way is "make config" the only way to compile the kernel?

  I don't know anything about your monitor, I do know that you can run
"make
  xconfig" (without the qoutes) if you have X running, just use the console
and
  goto the dir. (/usr/src/linux)
  
  Much nicer and easier to use.  at least thats what I find.
