Hang on, I've already voted on this, but I want to look into IDE's for Linux, but I can't see them on this page again (because I've already voted), could someone list them please? Thanks.
I use XWPE for school. Too bad it isn't in the list
XWPE is a clone of the Borland C++/Pascal, the ones we use at school on Windows, so having the same keyboard shortcuts, menus etc. is kinda handy
Distribution: Fedora (workstations), CentOS (servers), Arch, Mint, Ubuntu, and a few more.

Vim is the good old way. But with Java my preference (high) is give to NetBeans. For C/C++ Anjuta was ok for my limits. I found KDevelop little bit KDE/QT oriented. Why havent I seen anything like Bloodshed Dev C++ on Linux (It uses GCC!)?
A second vote for VIM. With plugins setup, it works great for all my development needs. Plus, I can use macros and scripts to customize it to my liking/needs much easier than the other IDEs mentioned.
For an IDE that non programmers can use, the choice has got to be Runtime Revolution. This is a cross platform IDE that creates freely distributable runtimes. Coupled with the the Linux shell, it can be used to create GUI applications in an easy end user scripting method. See my articles on learning basic shell scripting coupled with this wonderful product, and you will become a power user able to turn Linux into your own super productive system.
voting for eclipse...
made the switch this year from netbeans for java development.
I guess you did the switch too early. Because NetBeans 5.0 is literary eclipsing Eclipse and all other IDEs. Painless desktop Java, JEE, JME and lots of other stuff out of the box and it's free (both as in free speech and free beer).
