Hi All,
I started installing gentoo on a Macbook pro 15" and stopped soon after I
created new partitions for it. I could feel the Macbook overheating while
running the sysrescuecd kernel, without me having compiled a single package
yet.
I'm guessing it is missing some drivers; for example I have no wireless
interface listed, although sysrescuecd has loaded the bcma module.
Has anyone attempted running gentoo on this hardware and what solution did you
follow to control CPU voltage/temperatures?

Regards,
Mick

I'm posting this in case it troubles anyone else in the future.
I made some time to revisit this problem and found that kworker/0:2 was pegged
at 100% CPU. Google advised this is a kernel bug, according to this report at
least and disabling the corresponding interrupt (gpe16 in my case) appears to
have brought the overheating under control:
