try eclipse with eclipse cdt plugin. In www.eclipse.org you can find a bundle of "eclipse for c/c++ developers". That's the one you need.

Yea, that is the best I have seen so far, but nothing gets anywhere close to the quality of Visual Assist + MSVC sadly, that is my only main tie to still programming on Windows, the IDE is just so much better.  Might see if it works in wine...

Slightly off topic, GNU Global is pretty good in creating the good cross reference. I use it

in my project with full boost being indexed. Emacs + Global is my development environment

that works on both windoze and gnu/linux. I like the references feature of global which lists

all potential locations where the symbol is referred (using pattern match only, same named functions

appear even if it is totally unrelated to the symbol you are trying to explore)

That is still not like how VA works. VA actually knows which symbol you are referring to, even if you have 20 identically named symbols in a single file, you can do things like right-click and rename it and it renames all of just that symbol without touching the others. It can guess what you are typing as you type based on what you have done in the past and the surrounding code, even the tooltips are color-coded correctly, it just does everything 'right'. The second something like VA exists for linux, my main PC will be converted in a nanosec.
