g++ is a good compiler. You could write your code in any of the text editors, kwrite, vim etc.
If you are looking for an IDE, which you probably are, try Kdevelop. It should be on the RH9 Cd's.

Integrated Development Environment.

A piece of software that brings together development, compilation, linker, debug etc in a nice GUI.
They often have frameworks of apps to begin with.

VC++ is an IDE.

In my opinion, KDevelop is way too crazy with way too many options. Try Anjuta--I like it much better.

i've never programmed in linux before (i've been programming c++ in visual studios for about a year now), but i'd say go with a stable version. that's what i'm dling right now : )

i've tried to write simple programs (saying 'hi') using gcc, but i always get an error saying it doesn't recognise iostream.h (or stdlib.h, i've tried both)

Learn C if you want to program an OS.
C++ just makes more sense

C++ is a superset of C that adds support for class-based object oriented programming and some other niceties, like templates, boolean variables, and it provides a real string class.

C compilers typically create simpler, faster, and lower level code that is much more suitable for things that need to be fast (e,g, OS).

Some well-known things created in C:
Linux
XFree86
GNOME/GTK+

Some well-known things created in C++:
QT/KDE
Fresco
other stuff cant think of now
