If all your critical programs are running in userspace (i.e. they do not
use any special kernel-module) you might want to consider running them
in a 32bit-chroot. You could for example install amd64-Gentoo onto
another partition and chroot to the old Gentoo to run those programs.

I have recompiled my kernel as per the Powernow HOWTO at

scaling support.
A dmesg | grep powernow returns nothing , it is enabled in the BIOS of the
machine and works under Windows but does not even appear as an option under
Gentoo running kernel 2.6.20-gentoo-r8.
I am running an Athlon 64 3200+ but running the x86 version of Gentoo
so that I can run the software I require that is not well supported under
amd64.
Any ideas apprecaited.
Thanks
