I suspected so. However the acpi and i2c section of the two config are identical. I report the only selected options:
Power management options (ACPI, APM) ---> [*] Power Management support [*] Software Suspend (Hibernation) ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) Support ---> [*] ACPI Support [*] Sleep States <M> Button <M> Video <M> Fan <M> Processor <M> Thermal Zone (0) Disable ACPI for systems before Jan 1st this year
Device Drivers ---> I2C support ---> <M> I2C device interface I2C Hardware Bus support ---> <M> VIA VT82C596/82C686/82xx and CX700
