Usually the person without the knowledge lacks it so bad as not to know The Right Question to ask....
So, if you have waded through all the packages and found The Right Answer....
...stop waiting for The Right Question that may never come and just tell us The Answer in this thread.
fr'instance....
The Right program for converting loads of sounds files to The Right format for the dodgy player in your car or whatever is "soundkonverter". That 'k' is not a typo.
The Right firefox addon for writing long screeds in text boxes is "It's all text".
The right program to tune your guitar is gtkguitune, but if you're so far out as not to have a clue... audacity is lets you see sound.
Keep the Answers coming, why bother to wait for the questions!
For those handy, nice and very helpful videos showing how "stuff is done", you use a screencast programm and the best one for Linux is "recordmydesktop" to record your Gimp/Inkscape/Scribus/Blender/Whatever tutorials.
