Default [Q] Help rooting Galaxy S I9000 - 2.3.3 XWJVH

I am having a few problems with rooting my Galaxy S.
I have looked for hours at different threads about different root methods and different kernels but I am not sure which root method and kernel to use.
I am running Gingerbread 2.3.3 XVJVH. Can somebody give me some advice and provide me with a link to rooting instructions with your preferred method please?

Thanks

Hy!
I'm using already rooted kernel's like SpeedMod.You can try with this---> http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1044519(but this is for 2.3.4 but should work on 2.3.3)

I have tried all root versions with JVP, almost to the point to brick the phone and I came to the following conclusion why do all the kernels remove the bootanimation sound????

I reinstalled the original stock JVH because JVP has a huge battery drain not explicitely on the usage settings but with the same usage of applications on a daily routine the phone wouldn't last 14 hours. With JPY and now JVH, the battery last almost 48 hours.

I just want to have root to install the daily briefing from JVP and to calibrate the GPS but there is no rooting method nor kernel which stick to stock rom implementing only root, busybox and su and the rest to remain untouched....either the bootanimation sound is removed or you get extra tweaks when you are not using it...so anynone for a minimalist rooting?

You could try with one-click root but i'm not sure that will work on 2.3.3
