1 Hello!!
2
3 Well, I'm an architecture student who has wasted tons
4 of time trying to get gentoo runing all kind of
5 necessary software for my studies.
6
7 Maybe if I tell you what software I use, it will help
8 you:
9
10 For 3d:
11 Maya for linux (prop.)
12 Pro/E for linux (prop.)
13 Blender -> IT'S REALLY GOOD (probably one of the best
14 pieces of software available) It is just not used for
15 companies.
16
17 For video:
18 Cinelerra
19
20 For vectorial drawing:
21 Sodipodi
22 Scribus (I really like it, it has all the necessary
23 things) -> use it instead of Adobe Indesign or
24 Illustrator
25
26 For raster images:
27 Well, of course, GIMP
28
29 For CAD:
30 Qcad (It is reeeeeeaaally BAD) unuseful for Autocad
31 people.
32 BricsCAD (prop.) It works OK for Autocad users. You
33 can get a Demo.
34
35
36 As you can see, unfortunately, there are still some
37 points where CAD/CAM and architecture linux users need
38 some propietary software. I tried many other programs
39 (like Varicad and so on) but they, simply, make you
40 waste your time.
41
42 Make any other question about this topic, I think I
43 can help you.
44
45 Good luck!!
