As has been suggested your best bet for help is to post your .config. 
If you don't want that publicly available then feel free to email it 
privately to Matt and myself.

FWIW, I have two Hauppauge cards (PVR350 card and a Nova-T-500 DVB-T 
card) in my Alpha, and have had no problems compiling the kernel, the 
ivtv modules, the DVB modules, and the IR modules.

If we cannot track down what you are doing differently than the rest of 
us, then there is little chance we can help you.

Cheers
Michael.
