    Qt is the best there is if you want a free, cross-platform, all-in-one package. It is also probably the only cross-platform solution there is that is so complete like Qt.

    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.
