GUI programming under suse 10.2
![]() |
Good thing too, otherwise I wouldn't have seen your thread among the thousands that are posted here everyday. 
I think what you'll find, though, is that there aren't nearly as many GUI programmers compared to text-app writers in the *nix world as there are in Windows or Mac. I've done GUI programming in Mac OS X and Windows, but never in Linux.
Not that I'm trying to discourage you from writing a GUI, but not very many people will be able to offer suggestions for you. If I were to choose, I'd probably use QT if my target platform was Linux, but wxWidgets if my target was more multi-platform. And I've never really programmed with Java, so I wouldn't know.

Java's SWT or swing or how they call it is the worst user interface you can see nowdays ...
Of course, this works wonderfully with MACs and windows. Unfortunately, this isn't so true for Kde (not gnome mind you).
Which is a major pain! Sun get your act together, gnome Look and feel sucks ass.
Looks like it's QT then. Argh. More work I guess.
