Avidemux is probably the most user friendly. If you are using Ubuntu it is in the repos. Not sure if there is a rpm obtainable otherwise you may have to compile it from source. It is designed for use with .avi files.

you can get a liveDVD from the AVLinux 3 project. works great even from the liveDVD.

Kino / Cinelerra are pretty fair too :-)

I agree with uncle-c , Avidemux. I've tried Cinerella and found it has a steep learning curve. I do all kinds of things using Avidemux and it's pretty intuitive to use. I love it.

Is it possible to add text to a movie, something like watermark?

Of all the apps mentioned above, Kino has the easiest and most intuitive splitting function.

One more quick note on splitting video here - I hadn't used avidemux before to split files, but it turns out it's quite easy and reliable (as long as you're working with files in a format avidemux can handle; variations on avi). Check out this short tutorial:
