The most important of the problems involves the fan. The laptop gets a

I don't mean to be insulting but are you sure you were "compiling" under
Vista? Typically, most users of Windows systems don't "compile". They
just install pre-compiled binaries or "packages" if you will. But maybe
you are a developer who actually compiles software under Windows...
Anyway, the reason I ask is because unless your were actually running
your CPU at full load under Windows, it's normal to have your system
become warmer while emerging packages on Gentoo because you are actually
"compiling" instead of just installing.
