It appears there are still apic issues under x86_64 SMP, so look at
noapic if you continue to have hangups (you may have this AND heat
problems).
Also look at the AMD_64 architecture forums at gentoo.org. I'm not
familiar with the Acer peripherals but that forum helped me with my
HP9000z.

Yes, it's a new Acer, with a Amd64 Turion mobile mk-38. I had thought
initially that the cpu was to blame for the freezups as indeed I have
never installed on this particular processor.
So far, so good with the freezing, though. I propped the machine up,
and all seems to be going smoothly...

Yes, I've done some reading and indeed it probably is overheating.
I'll probably prop it up on some jewel cases and blow a fan at it
until I can get a working system. Then I'll investigate cpu frequency
scaling.
Thanks for your advice.

If it's brand-new, have you ever installed Linux on this particular
processor/motherboard combination? I had a problem with freezeups
with my TurionX2 laptop until I used -noapic on the kernel line.
Nothing much to do with load, except that more work = more chance of
encountering the problem.

I just got myself a new laptop and wanted to install Gentoo on it.
After getting a working base system installed, I tried to install
Xorg-x11, but the machine froze while trying to compile gcc. Keep in
mind, there were no error messages, logs or anything of that nature.
