Some issues with current snapshot:

a) DVB modules got accidently disabled, please reenable em - you see this in config:

# CONFIG_DVB_CORE is not set

b) A new ALSA sound driver interferes with DVB driver.

Please disable this:

CONFIG_SND_AW2=m

or at least blacklist it:

blacklist snd-aw2

I don't think that anybody will miss this driver, it was never here before, it only caues problems with saa7146 cards (take a look at budget-av to see that it uses the same pci id just in general form).

c) XEN

Is it really needed to enable XEN by default? I don't know of any working XEN patch for nvidia 173.x drivers which would allow compilation - without it should be possible (until 171.x you might be able to patch the driver, official 2.6.26 patches are only for 173.x drivers out).

d) HIGHMEM64GB

As there are lots of users with 4GB and more maybe think about enabling this by default.
