I find some of this music to be quite challenging - the challenge being to stick it out to the end without slipping into a coma.

^ Nevertheless, I can x2 this recommendation, although it's best to choose carefully to get the Eno that you want. Some of his best ambient albums were done with Fripp, who of course went on to do plenty of ambient albums on his own. Of the whole bunch, I'd recommend "Heavenly Music Corporation" as being their finest hour; it has some slow but robust guitar playing from R.Fripp.

I quite like this whole album, pretty damn laid back and spacey:

^ This album sounds great - as you say, it may not fit the OP requirements too well, but it is all the better for that, imo. For a similar reason I liked the Vangelis and Wave Racer tracks too.
