It is a matter if what platform you are developing for and what
language you are developing in. I dont know for sure what you mean by "do
some programming in VB." Are you trying to write an OS or application to
run on virtual box or are you referring to visual basic? I am only familiar
with the eclipse ide in linux, but I do know there are a few different
options similar to VB. A quick Google shows a second result as a forum
post
indicating one option that has fully compatable libraries... sorry
couldn't figure out how to make a link copy on this new mobile....
