manuals, tutorials and other user's guides needed

[RiverWind <riverwind shellworld net>]

Greetings,

I am writing to obtain an idea of where I might find manuals and/or
user's guides for the primary gnome packages. I am referring to
such utilities as Brazaro and serpentine CD burners, ISO creators,
video and Audio packages and file management applications. I am a
novice linux user who is in the process of becoming proficient with
both the commandline and graphical aspects of Linux, the Debian
system in particular. I assumed that the appropriate help
facilities would be available with the packages they support, but
if such be the case I do not know how to access and utilize them.
Any pointers would be most sincerely appreciated.

Bright Blessings,
RiverWind
