I decided to give gentoo a try recently, and also decided to play around with alsa. I couldn't get alsa working, but that's a problem for another day. In trying to get the alsa modules to load, my system would hang, taking out everything(keyboard, network), requiring a manual reset.
Now my system appears thoroughly hosed. It hangs just like above when I try to log in as a user other than root. I tried removing the user and adding it again, as well as adding a new user. I have no problems with root. When I run a command, such as less somefile, the screen fills up with junk, I get a message telling me to hit enter(I forget the exact message). When I hit enter, the command executes as normal. One other thing. reiserfsck reports no filesystem corruption and nothing shows up in my logs. Any ideas. I thought about recompiling the bases system, but it doesn't seem to me that reinstalling everything would be necessary.
