In addition to virtual consoles I also find
app-misc/screen quite useful.  You can detach a
session and then reattach from an xterm, ssh, etc...

That option does not mean that you can not start emerge in parallel.
Is says that emerge should tell each instance of make to not compile in
parallel. Which is not the same.

What i meant is that you start emerge on one console and then before it is
finished start emerge on another as well.

But since your college is having the same problem you propably aren't
runninng emerge twice.
