Salut Emma,
I also use a TM634. You probably have compiled your kernel with APIC
support
CONFIG_X86_UP_APIC
As the TM63x does not have an APIC, it is best, to make a kernel without
that. Then it will power-off. I use a stock 2.6.6-kernel (as the
ACPI-patches go into mainline so quickly...)

Your syntax error seams to be something, you normally do not see, but this
sounds like a bash-thing to me...

As I do not use gaim and xmms, I do not encounter freezes...
