I don't know how many years ago your Unix programming was, but emacs and vim
have both evolved IDE features (tags, compilation, jumping to errors,
debugging). You still have to write makefiles, but for many projects,
automake will generate them for you based on a minimum of information.
There are also several IDEs under development that are similar in spirit to the
tools you are used to. I hear many good things about kdevelop
(www.kdevelop.org), but have never used it myself.

Emacs, GCC, GDB and CVS give me all I need. For GUI development, there are
tools for Qt (I don't know the name of the tool) and GTK (glade) that will let
you visually design applications.
There's no shortage of choices; you should do some research, try a lot of
tools, and find what best suits your needs and those of your project.
