I don't think these books were mentioned before. All books in Bruce Perens' Open Source Series are freely downloadable in PDF format:

Of course, buy a couple of books if you like them to get food on the table for the authors. I have the Qt, wxWidgets, and Linux VM books on paper. All three great introductions and references!

I bought a copy of Peren's C++ GUI with Qt 3 about a month ago. It is a great book and I like Qt. I had hoped to use Gnome for a project since it is entirely open source but found Qt a little easier to use. Besides, I just don't care for the Gnome desktop. At least it is open source for the Linux environment. I never use Windows when I'm not at work so the Linux version of all I need.

Thanks for the posts,
