I'm going to start a solo adventure this weekend, playing a Gestalt Factotum Archivist. My rolled stats are 12, 13, 13, 15, 15, 16.

The theme of the character is a literature-loving tomb raider, exploring the depths of dungeons to recover ancient texts and knowledge on Aulasha, the Illumian diety's behalf.

Suggestions on how to make this character survivable?

Edit: Oh yeah, starting at level 6. Most books available... the Complete series anyways. And Heroes of Horror & Dungeonscape, of course.

NaenHoon + Persistent Spell. Persist Mass Lesser Vigor for fast healing 1 all day, and something else. I'd suggest taking the spontaneous domain casting alternate class feature from PHB2, and then picking a domain that has some awesome spells in it to apply it to.

Is there a way to gain turn undead attempts? Or does the Factotum version count too?

I don't know enough about Factotums to answer. You could dip Dread Necromancer (or even cleric), or a PrC that grants it like Sacred Exorcist.
