Two books that helped me a great deal:
1. 'Advanced Programming in the UNIX Environment' (2nd ed) by Stevens and Rago (Addison-Wesley)
2. 'Linux Programming' (3rd ed) by Mathew and Stones (Wrox)
The second book in particular goes beyond just the C/C++ API into the entire development environment/tools (ie: Make, gdb, valgrind, cvs, bitkeeper, etc etc...)
