Here are the settings I use for my MythTV box.
First off, the gear:
AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+ Manchester 2.0GHz Socket 939 MSI K8NGM2-FID NForce 430 GeForce 6150 8 channel HD audio codec RealTek ALC880 (INTEL) Hauppage PVR-350
So what do we need in menuconfig? Select the following, in addition to all the defaults:
(FOR NVIDIA) (FOR HAUPPAGE) <*> Device Drivers -> Multimedia Devices -> Video For Linux [*] Device Drivers -> Multimedia Devices -> Enable Video For Linux API 1 (DEPRECATED) <M> Device Drivers -> Multimedia Devices -> Video Capture Adapters -> BT848 Video For Linux <M> Device Drivers -> Multimedia Devices -> Video Capture Adapters -> SAA6588 Radio Chip on BT848 cards (FOR INTEL HD AUDIO (ALC880) and ALSA - 'use modules so alsa-config works') <M> Device Drivers -> Sound -> Sound Card Support < > Device Drivers -> Open Sound System -> Open Sound System (DEPRECATED) <M> Device Drivers -> Sound -> Advanced Linux Sound Architecture -> Advanced Linux Sound Architecture <M> Device Drivers -> Sound -> Advanced Linux Sound Architecture -> Sequencer support <M> Device Drivers -> Sound -> Advanced Linux Sound Architecture -> OSS Mixer API <M> Device Drivers -> Sound -> Advanced Linux Sound Architecture -> OSS PCH (digital audio) API <*> Device Drivers -> Sound -> Advanced Linux Sound Architecture -> OSS PCH (digital audio) API - include plugin system <M> Device Drivers -> Sound -> Advanced Linux Sound Architecture -> PCI Devices -> Intel HD Audio
P.S. It can be helpful to compare the new .config file with the older working version to check to see if you missed anything:
kdiff3 ../linux-2.6.17-gentoo-r8/.config .config
P.P.S. Kernel hackers all use the 'oldconfig' option of make menuconfig - gentoo says only 'safe' if you're in the same kernel revision (e.g. 2.6.18-r4 to -r6):
cp ../linux-##older_working_kernel##/.config ./ make oldconfig
