Linuxcad is not really an option if you need functionality similar to
Autocad.  I have been searching for a cad program that can come close to
acad, also.  I think Varicad has promise http://www.varicad.com/ and is
reasonably priced.  Arcad is promising too.  There is a large list of
links which appear to still be fairly current.  Check them out at
http://www.upfrontezine.com/Linux/?CADINFONETreferral

It is a shame that there isn't a industry strength cad program ported to
linux.  Pro/E I believe is the only one.

I think that the OpenOffice draw package is not bad and should be
developed for cad-like accuracy and functionality.  It does do a fairly
good 2-D job though.

Good luck.
