Thanks for the response. However, I am looking for a 2D,3D CAD program very
similar to AutoCAD. Being a user of AutoCAD for over 15years, I am more
conversant with its commands and menus, but unable to bear the exorbitant
prices to buy new releases. I tried VariCAD, but it didn't like any of the
AutoCAD commands .

When i search the internet in LinuxCAD i can only find really negative
story's. And I dont think LinuxCAD is maintained active, because their
website is down for ages. Because it is not maintained i think it will not
work with recent distro's. When you see the screenshots of this program on
the internet it reminds me of the graphics of 10 years ago. I think you have
wasted your money.
I dont know what kind of cad program you are searching for? 3D or 2D? But
when you tell me your needs maybe we can advise a good cad program. You
could allsow browse some reviews on http://international.cad4linux.nl/
