A while back we were discussing available free cad programs and someone mentioned one that runs on linux but is 64 bit only. At the time I was only running an old 32 bit machine in the shop so I moved on. Well I finally upgraded the shop machine to a 64 bit machine that will run that. Problem is, I can't find the thread. I looked at all the cad related threads but it's not there, so it had to happen in someone else's thread about something else.
Does anyone remember the name of that cad program?
I loaded up FreeCAD 0.15 and still tryin to work it out my heads stuck in tech drawing 1969 in high skool .a mate said its the easiest one an free .I think itll just stay as a decoration on the bottom bar thingy on the puter
Vinny,
The only free CAD programs I know of for Linux are Draftsight, LibreCAD, FreeCAD and OnShape. None of which are 64 bit only, I think.
Here's a link to a list of CAD programs for Linux. I'm not sure how old the list is though.

I've seen quite a few lists, but not that one. I'm interested in DraftSight but it's been in beta forever (for linux & mac).

I've run Draftsight in Linux without any problems. I haven't done a lot with it though. I'm so used to Solid Edge 2D that it's painful trying to switch to a lesser program. Solid Edge is Windoze only, unfortunately.
