Nagios will install and run fine on Gentoo.  So should JFFNMS:

  http://www.jffnms.org/

So should ZENOSS - although I am not sure which overlay it may be in:

  http://community.zenoss.org/index.jspa


However, I have only used Nagios, so cannot compare with other monitoring 
applications.  With regards to using a GUI to manage Nagios there's a few of 
those available and more are coming out by the day it seems:

Out of these I've only used Nagmin and quickly went back to vim ...  ;-)
