Hum. I could've sworn I got 3D acceleration after installing it. Maybe it
depends on which card you have. (I have a GeForce 4 MX.)

As for IDE, I'd like to second the Eclipse recommendation. A new major version
was released recently and it looks as it's becoming a great product. I've not
used the feature, but I think you can have it write makefiles for you (called
managed make, or something). Be sure to get the CDT plugin for C/C++
development.
