my kernel config for a 2.6.38.2 vanilla kernel

Hello!

My 2.6.38 kernel fails to boot when using the nouveau driver. See these
pictures of the kernel output while booting:

I made 3 pictures because I wanted to show the effect of the "shifted" text in
the fullscreen picture where you can barely read the text. The other two
pictures show the text.

I am running gentoo linux and I used kernel 2.6.37 for quite a while with no
problems but was not able to produce a working 2.6.38 kernel. I have tried the
gentoo-sources-2.6.38-r1 and also a vanilla 2.6.38.2 kernel and the behaviour
is the same for both. I have attached my kernel config.
