Sometimes reading through the output message from make gives clues as to the problem. I suggest you take the advice of the warning above and try again.

Check your config and make sure that CONFIG_MODULES=yes is set.

You are reviving a 2-year dead thread in the Slackware forum for no reason. From your signature it seems you are not even using Slackware. Open your own thread in your own distro's forum instead of violating the dead (I mean, violating LQ etiquette).
