easy graphical library to use for linux/c++?

[fs5]

What's a common easy to use graphical library for c++, none are standard right? any easy to use classes?

 

[Barnaby W. Füi]

For C++, either wxwindows or QT. wxwindows is pretty cool, it would be my preference, just from a user's standpoint.

How about if I want to write simple 2d games? what library would be best? I'm more interested in the programming/logic and don't want to mess around too much with the graphical portion.

sorry, I should've asked this question first

Ah, for games, I would say sdl.

edit: probably not of much use to you, but pygame is a python wrapper library around sdl, here's a little hello-world type thing i made with it (just bounces an image around the window) http://incise.org:82/~death/py/pygame1.python
