Other possibilities are WxWidgets and GTK+.
thank you very much all responses were helpfull
ok what about commercial products?
If you go the GTK+ route, Glade is very popular and also very pleasant to use (although probably a bit different from the VB designer — in several good ways, in my opinion). The interfaces generated are cross-language (it's two parts: an XML GUI description file and a library to work with them, so you don't have to recompile your app to change your GUI).
The Linux community isn't big on commercial products in general... what do you want one for? Qt and QtDesigner are available under a commercial license if you pay for it.
They released the visual studio add-in and Qt Creator IDE for free. so QT is a good choice.
