and this is the kernel you're running?

almost identical.  The differences shouldn't matter:
$ grep -i intel /usr/src/linux/.config   
CONFIG_X86_INTEL_USERCOPY=y
CONFIG_CPU_SUP_INTEL=y
CONFIG_X86_MCE_INTEL=y
CONFIG_MICROCODE_INTEL=y
CONFIG_HW_RANDOM_INTEL=y
# CONFIG_AGP_INTEL is not set
CONFIG_SND_HDA_INTEL=y
# CONFIG_SND_HDA_CODEC_INTELHDMI is not set
# CONFIG_SND_INTEL8X0 is not set
# CONFIG_SND_INTEL8X0M is not set
CONFIG_INTEL_IOATDMA=y
# CONFIG_INTEL_MENLOW is not set
# CONFIG_CRYPTO_CRC32C_INTEL is not set

also check "memory split", "Processor family" but I'm just guessing
now...

I didn't think there should be a difference between 2.6.32 and
2.6.32-r1..

I've never tried.  I just edited it by hand (make a backup) and stuck to
the new kernel!

sorry I'm not much help...
