Hi
Try out QtDesigner, it helps you to design GUI applications as easily as you do it in VB and helps you develop applications of different styles like Mac, DotNET etc. However Qt is just a designer and you need to do some additional programming in Python to completely build your application.
QtDesigner with Python supports MySQL as well as PGSQL. Please check out the OCT issue of Developers IQ Magazine. It has an article on how to develop applications easily with the help of QtDesigner and Python and the example in the issue is building an application for interaction with MySQL. I think this is exactly what you want.
I hope this will help.

AFAIK it is not free as in beer. It is comparable to Delphi which i loved to use in the bad old days.

And you think Qt is not GPL? When was the last time you went online?

he said "as well" -- what do you think that implies?
why so brash and harsh?

And issue with QT library is TrollTech has dual licensed it. One is GPL and other is proprietary license.
In case you are making a open source app, its quite OK to write it in QT. But proprietary app developers would be required to buy QT commercially licensed product from TrollTech.

I guess the reason why this becomes a problem is that Qt is under the GPL instead of the LGPL, right? So if I develop a wrapper around Qt, and LGPL it, then people using my wrapper are free to develop proprietary applications, right?
By proprietary, I assume we mean software that is possibly closed source, with restrictions on use, modification and redistribution.
BTW, bad phrasing from the Trolltech site:
"Software developed with the Qt Free Editions may be freely copied and distributed, put on FTP sites and CD-ROMs, etc. This is entirely different from software developed with Qt Commercial Editions, which is governed by the laws protecting intellectual property."
The part "... gorverned by the laws protecting intellectual property." clearly shows the kind of confusion that people have about IP and the GPL. The FSF has reiterated time and again that the GPL does _not_ go against or out of IP laws, but instead stays within the framework, and uses copyright to ensure freedom of the software.
Is Trolltech actually trying to say that software that can be "freely copied and distributed, put on FTP sites and CD-ROMs, etc." is not governed by the laws protecting intellectual property?

How about sending this to mail to Trolltech?

If you already have a CS background, and know about operating systems in general, good enough. Else first thing you should do is get your basics right. My personal recommendation is "Operating Systems: Design and Implementation" by William Stallings. Some people also refer to "Modern Operating Systems" by Andrew Tanenbaum, but I didn't find it so good.
For the Linux kernel itself, try http://www.kernelnewbies.org/ for a start. Good guides are also available on the Linux Documentation Project http://www.tldp.org/
