| you can start the livecd with different kernel and options... press F1/F2 when you are getting the prompt when booting up, before it gets to the nice gentoo screen... |

Try to use ACPI on the startup, I think it fix that problem for laptops. (I think I've read about it here on the foruns, but I don't own a laptop so I never had that kind of problems)
