What do you mean 2D programming tool? A graphics library? If you want to get something up and running quickly, IMO you can't beat python www.python.organd pygame www.pygame.org

If you're asking for a GUI development environment there are a number of these, depending on what windowing toolkit you want.
Check your distro.
Slackware 10 comes with Glade (Gtk / GTK+) and KDevelop (Qt).

If you want a full IDE I would sugest taking a peek onto http://www.eclipse.org/ with the CDT (C Development Toolkit) feature.
Borland CBuilderX can also do the job, but I am not sure if there is a Personal version

.

If you're asking about a graphical 2D development (like in 2D games)... Than I appologize for the answer out of scope.
