Slack 10.1 - Kernel 2.6.12.5 - Nvidia Drivers

[Frank Kumro]

I just installed Slackware 10.1 compiled the 2.6.12.5 kernel and im
trying to install the Nvidia drivers. I always get a error saying it
cannot compile the driver and here is the error from the logs. Any
ideas?

  make -rR -f /usr/src/linux-2.6.12.5/scripts/Makefile.modpost
   /usr/src/linux-2.6.12.5/scripts/Makefile.modpost:38: .config: No such file o
   r directory
