Most likely /var/log/messages or /var/log/syslog depending on how gentoo
does its logging.

Have you tried Ubuntu? It's a very nice distro, simple to use and still
Debian under the hood if you want to mess around with it. Probably more
support and better features than smaller debian based things (or if the K
signifies you are a KDE person, there's Kubuntu, which is a semi-official
alternative version that has KDE as the default desktop instead of gnome).

Cheers,
