You're doing it wrong. Don't ever walk through "all the choices".

Take a distro kernel, boot your box, plug in all of the devices you want
to support, then do:
'make localmodconfig'
in your own kernel drectory and spend 5 minutes building your new
kernel and then booting into it.

Then use your distros version of a kernel. opensuse is great, as is
arch, and a few other community-based distros, like Fedora. I trust
them to get it right with kernel updates. If you don't want to do it
yourself, use one of those "big 3" and feel quite comfortable with
rebooting every few weeks and all will be fine.

thanks,
