Dan,



I've used Qcad and found a program called 'dwg2dxf' that will convert

the DWG to DXF. Works great. You can find it at :



  https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=30996



There are multiple items you can download there, but the second entry

is entitled "DWG to DXF" and has a "dwg2dxf-2.1.tar.gz" that you can

pull down. Get it, unbundle it, build it, and start converting.

Windows boot on which I can use Intellicad quite effectively, but I dual

boot Linux and would like a Linux CAD program capable of reading dwg files.

There is one that does dxf files (it's called QCad), but I don't know of a

reasonably priced Linux variant that handles dwg files.  Anyone know of one?
