i think gamin is not meant to be started as a service.. thats one of the main diferences from FAM, but i still dont know how to start it...
i think im gonna give up on ubuntu right now... i might try vector linux.
meanwhile ill keep working on gentoo and maybe on openSUSE what are the reviews of working on openSUSE?

Don't have any links off the top of my head - though there's been
quite a few reviews and blogs about where they've said hardware detection in Ubuntu didn't work for their PC and one of those other distros has installed flawlessly out of the box. (oh wait - found one
mentioning linuxmint http://blog.lobby4linux.com/index.php?/archives/161-Its-The-Hardware-Silly....html )

Don't get me wrong - I'm not saying Ubuntu is bad, nor that you should use gentoo. Just trying to provide some options which have the ease of use of Ubuntu and may work with XSI. I'd try Vector first out of that
list, then PCLinuxOS then Linuxmint (as linuxmint is ubuntu based so it's got the highest likelihood of hitting the same issues you have now).
As far as the lightweight aspect Vectorlinux (
http://www.vectorlinux.com) claims to be the fastest non-source distro available and from the reviews around I'd certainly consider it possible.
