sure.. it's easy(just requires patience).

do a:(in the source tree of kernel)
gist bisect start (enter)
git bisect bad (v2.6.*something, and/or enter for the current)
then
git bisect good v2.6.33
(git bisect will think)
then
make menuconfig
make (compile, reboot etc..)
if it's a good kernel then
(in source tree)
git bisect bad(if the problem is still there git bisect bad).
then
keep going until git gives it's idea of the problem
(then cry and complain to the authors that they fu*ked it up
just messn);

hope this help.
