[ydl-gen] YDL 5.0 Kernel Questions

[Da Meatster]

I'm trying to compiile a driver from source that has
the following requirements:

CONFIG_HOTPLUG - Support for hot-pluggable devices
CONFIG_MODULES - Enable loadable module support
CONFIG_KMOD - Automatic kernel module loading
CONFIG_FW_LOADER - Hotplug firmware loading support
CONFIG_I2C - I2C support
CONFIG_VIDEO_DEV - Video For Linux
CONFIG_SOUND - Sound card support
CONFIG_SND - Advanced Linux Sound Architecture
CONFIG_USB - Support for Host-side USB
CONFIG_USB_DEVICEFS - USB device filesystem
CONFIG_USB_EHCI_HCD - EHCI HCD (USB 2.0) support

Additionally, to use the example application, the
following options need to
be enabled in the ALSA section:

CONFIG_SND_MIXER_OSS - OSS Mixer API
CONFIG_SND_PCM_OSS - OSS PCM (digital audio) API

The readme says these can be compiled as built-in or
modules. Various other googled pages state that
certain options MUST be built-in and others MUST be
modules. My question is, how do I find out if all of
these options are enabled in the YDL 5.0 kernel, which
are built-in and which are modules?

I know that I might need to rebuild the kernel to get
some options built-in. Is there any place this process
for YDL 5.0? I'm a total linux newbie and all I want
is to get MythTV installed an running on my PS3. I've
been reading articles, and all of them describe a
different way to do this for each disto, none for YDL
5.0. I'm just looking for one for YDL 5.0. Can anyone
direct me to one or outline the steps I need to take
in a way that's not impossible to follow?

Thanks
