Linux - serious beginner needs serious help to get started

I have some programming experience in dbase III and FoxPro; and very little in Visual Basic.  I want to go Linux.  I choose SUSE, have installed & tried to operate.  Painfully slow with no help or guidence.  I want to be able to write fairly efficient programs; but am not looking to be super-geek.
1) Is SUSE good and where is best training; Novell has beta tape for $200.
2) Does MONO allow someone to program in C++ and run Linux?  Should I learn C++ or stick with Linux training?

Thank you for any help - I am sure my questions show my lack of experience.

I have never been to the third one, but it seems to have a lot of information on it.
