If the config change doesn't reveal anything, you can do git bisect of the kernel to find out which patch broke it. When you do git bisect you don't need to recompile the whole kernel every time, it only compiles the changed files, which are usually not many. So even on a slower machine it's not so bad once the first compile is finished. https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Kernel_git-bisect
