The Norway-based company Trolltech is well known for their C++ and fully OOP Toolkit, Qt. Qt is the basis of KDE, but it is also a very important and powerful tool under Windows, MacOS/X and X11 developers. Qt 3.0 released less than a month ago, bringing some really impressive features, like the ability to build platform- and database independent database applications, greatly improved internationalisation and font handling etc. Harri Porten, TrollTech employee and also a KDE developer (mostly working on the javascript part on Konqueror) answers some of our questions.

there must be something wrong with it for linux. on my mac os x desktop, the interface is all pretty, and on windows it's pretty. but on linux, with all the same fonts as my windows setup, qt is just damn ugly. even with -style options. don't get me wrong, i love qt. i'm developing commercial applications with it, but it's quite apparent, that come time of release, we need to write a qt style that our program defaults to, to hopefully clean up how the widgets / text look, because otherwise, it'll look extremely unprofessional -- just ugly. anyone know what i'm talking about, or know how to make it look better? regards.
