when i got my phone it was on 2.3.4 and i followd this guide
http://jaxov.com/2011/02/how-to-root-android-2-3-3-gingerbread-on-nexus-s/

Thank you for your Reply.. But the guides is all about 2.3.3, I am just afraid that ill brick my phone if i mess up something.
So can i just ignore the 2.3.3 part..and just think tht its the guide for 2.3.4?

I followed this guide:

The root process for the nexus s is universal. It doesn't matter what version you're running on. What matters is your phone model.

It would help to put up what kind of Android version you're on. Just simply putting your kernel version doesn't help at all.

Dude, you ARE on Jelly Bean. Android 4.1.x - 4.3.x is all Jelly Bean.
As for changing the kernel version, there isn't much of a choice for Android 4.1.2. You'd have to root it and use a different Android version if you really want a different kernel version (doesn't matter honestly).

Read about rooting and unlocking boot loader , flashing a Rom, and updating your bootloader (modem). I like 4.1.2 Roms, Obsessed Rom, TKRom, Clean 7 Rom, and Synergy. Each have themes that are great. Read up on rooting, unlocking boot loader, flashing Rom and changing basebands BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING ON YOUR DEVICE. Each carrier and model is not the same so make sure you only follow directions for your specific device model and carrier, if not you will most likely have a paperweight. Good Luck.
Lean kernel , KT747, and a few others have 4.1.2 kernels available.

Here is an all in one root thread for the i9000: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2434225
I would ask in that thread about the differences between the i9000 and i9000m, there may be different procedures to follow so be sure to ask
