To run menuconfig programme you need "ncurses" package, which is not installed on your system
That is the reason of your first problem.
Now, your ubuntu version, looks like obsolete (i believe you installed it long time before)and is no longer supported anymore.
If you update your ubuntu version, i guess you would be able to install ncurses and would be able to build (make menuconfig wont fail).
Hope it would help.

Dear Friends,
Can anyone tell me how to find the process execution time in linux?
I mean how much time it is taking to execute any process in our
conventional processor.

Actually it is not only my distro problem.
I am trying to compile kernel in Ubuntu.
I am getting the following error and i am unable to rectify it.
*mamse@mamse-ThinkCentre-M80:~/linux-3.15.8$ make menuconfig *** Unable to
find the ncurses libraries or the *** required header files. *** 'make
menuconfig' requires the ncurses libraries. *** *** Install ncurses
(ncurses-devel) and try again. *** make[1]: ***

IIRC the package name is libncurses5-dev. It will be quite hard for you to
do any kernel development if you can't solve this by yourself.
