hello if you are using suse 8.2, install kdevelop and qt packages that came with the distribution. Then using Kdevelop you will be able to write apps for KDE. It has usefull wizard for creating project files for quick startup when developing your own apps. For basic 2D programming (lines, shapes) use QPainter class (you need to learn at least basics of C++) and write your own procedures for setting pixels and drawing the at PaintEvent. Search the net for Qt tutorials. I managed to write some code for displaying cube (without any prior knowledge of C++) using Kdevelop and Qt classes. Also, a quick reference for C++ can be found in KDE docs under Kdevelop. If you are interested in my work so far e-mail me. regards ,himba
For 3D I would also recommend OpenInventor. Its available for Linux from SGI and built on top of OpenGL . This means that certain low-level routines have been implemetned and you don't have to go into the finest details to draw a textured triangle and have a camera look at it :-) It works perfect with C, and also opens /writesVRML files.

One thing he might want to consider as well, is that Gnome is still being done it C, I believe. KDE stuff, is all C++ now, but it probably wouldn't be difficult for him to move over, but if C is your choice at this point Gnome/GTK might be a better working environment.
