ok.. so I joined them together each ones on his gnd. now I have two points that should be connected as one gng? finally al points will go to the PSU ground? SGNGs' PGNDs' * * * * * * * * | | | | | | | | +-+-+-+--+--+-+-+-+ | GND------+PSU ground this is the way it should be?

This is quite often in sensitive analog circuitry. A Google search on "star ground" seems to give some good links.
