AutoCAD / Linux / XGL

[ktreagus]

I can't decide what's more nauseating -- the teen-trash-background noise or the pointless wobbling and shivering effects that you have added.

I wonder how well does AutoCAD work in linux with a large file, as opposed to a single vehicle block file ??

does anyone have a current version of AutoCAD working yet without resorting to VMWare, ie. 2012 ??

[MCGOALS]

Music.....goodbye

[Pepsifx357]

Did you find it hard to get Autocad to work on wine?  I haven't succeeded yet.

[DarthV1CT0R]

@Pepsifx357 Copy all DLL of Windows in folder of wine. If you have Windows in DVD, you can install in VM and copy the DLL to run all application of Windows in Linux.

[Pepsifx357]

@DarthV1CT0R I appreciate that. Actually with Acad 2002 I was able to get it working without any problems. :)

[digitaldown]

the wiggly spinning window effects are gay, annoying, distracting and pointless.

[DrHawkins313]

and how is the performance on linux instead of using windows? thats the really big question here. are there any performance drop? specially thinking of rendering and larger scenes in viewport

[7448Productions]

Great Video, does in run/install eastily? + no messing around with the .dll's or the terminal? Thanks

[ms3597]

I saw this movie autocad on linux and I was wondering how you did it?

I want to install autocad 2006 on Ubuntu 9.10 (with Wine) but it just doesn't work and I can't find any instructions on the internet.

[bogas78]

Hello what is the THEME or graphics effects used in this Linux I'm also using ubuntu for all may work and now  I use ubuntu for CNC milling machine with EMC2 . Linux and FreeBSD is the best choice

[iCamiloTV]

The only 2 programs that get me stuck on Windows is Tecent QQ, and of course, Autodesk Inventor... but some day, I hope there will be an open source CAD program like inventor for linux. Otherwise, I would use Linux every day, I have an old Dell desktop that runs Ubuntu, it runs well.

[novomlinski]

I've found Arch to be more stable and easy to use then ubuntu

[Wochendgamer]

Thats so cool

[markoresko]

@novomlinski It is not quite good to compare two different ways of releasing Linux distributions.

Ubuntu Has LTS releases and regular releases. Arch is great but it is rolling distro etc. Both have their pluses and minuses but personally I feel most people enjoy stability more then latest and gratest testing.

[novomlinski]

yes ofcaurse I agree with you...But I am a person that doesnt like to use things that most people do,so i try other things & i've found arch to be more stable

[markoresko]

Well, I respect your findings etc,

But I very much doubt that Arch is anywhere near word "stable". it is my impression that you can not possibly give payed upport for such a rolling released distribution as Arch.

Ubuntu LTS is made every few Years and that is done after multiple stable releases in meantime.

Arch is great if you want to experiment with newest and testing, But it mostly is not even made for any kinfd of stability in mind.

[icecreamdaddy]

holy $#!t!!

[FatsoJetson]

Great vid whats the song?

[r8448]

Is it also possible to run the latest versions of Autocad on Linux?

[prashantpawar]

That wavy window feature is so useful for all my CAD related work.

You can almost see this news on the Onion:

***Area engineer uses the wobbly window feature to model a flying car***

Area engineer Bill used the wobbly window feature in XGL to simulate how a flying car would perform under extreme wind turbulence. "I had no idea whether the flying car I was modeling in AutoCAD would be able to take care of the high wind turbulence, thanks to the wobbly window feature now I know" said, Bill.

[kekojeep]

Wow, your irony is so cool, I think your IQ matches my dog (almost)..

Didn´t like the video? GTFO! No one forced you to watch..

[jsdrftng]

@kekojeep I think the video was awesome, i am new to the idea of having a choice for OS, this is great to know that you can run ACAD on linux. is there anything special you have to do? aside from getting linux? can you just do a standard install of cad on linux? where would i go to find more info on this?

thanks for the video!!!!

[Swaf130]

@prashantpawar Good news everyone! college grads with a semester of engineering enjoy autocad on ms windows rather than looking into more powerful alternatives such as Pro-E on Opensolaris or Bricscad on Linux and are Ok with mediocritivity rather than Compositing Amazingness that puts more fun into graphical computing

[sukhoi30mk2]

What song is it??!

[rafa1985polo]

It is a south brazilian band called Cachorro Grande, "big dog".

[vitorfideles]

cara, como vc fez pra instalar o autocad no umbutu?? jah tentei de várias formas mas não obtive sucesso.. ah, vc tmb pode dizer como vc colocou esses efeitos??? grato

[zarlieck]

what autocad version is that? 2008? 2005?

please tell me, i'm planning to swicth to ubuntu and i work with autocad 48/7 xD

the vid's very cool *_*

[BitzFit]

I am interested in this too. What software an linux distro are you using??

[joedebanana]

I don't know for AutoCAD version. But in a clip description author claims to be using Ubuntu Dapper(Old :D).

[TL3C7Y]

well the video was posted in 2006 so its going to be the 2005 version, but since 2006 Linux has made huge advancements so i can easily see any version of autocad running on any Linux distro

[TimKmusiK]

Man that is some nice customization w/ Ubuntu!..I don't belive my system would run that smooth with all the options "checked" lol...and for the others that posted about cad and linux... just go into synaptic i think w/ ubunut its System>Administration>synaptic packet mananger and search "Qcad" it shoudl be in the repos...good luck!! Nice post man,

[AngeloMoraes0909]

POWER VIOLENCEEEE

MTO FODAAA *-*

[firecad2006]

i tryed it with wine and it doent like it what are you using please tell me please

[felipeluongo]

Hey, !!! How do i install autocad ( and what version) for my ubuntu? Thanks

[cybercow222]

I always told: when only 2 apps get their Linux incarnations Windows will instantly die: Photoshop and AutoCAD ...

... as for video is nice cool, but i doubt any serious CAD user need and ever will use all that effects

[digitaldown]

i hate those stupid effects.

[MarcianitoRajoy]

An Autocad, an accounting application, a video editor and a couple of graphic design apps.

[andredornelas]

Cara , please como vc conseguiu ou como eu faco para instalar o autocad no ubuntu???

Regards!!!

Dornelas

[odmcarp]

how do i get my programs to do that bouncy wavy thing you got goin on there?

[rebulus]

Compiz fusion on for example UBUNTU

[TimKmusiK]

Compiz-Fusion.....get compiz icon and start playing..good luck

[euchgros25]

Moué mettre AutoCAD 2000 sous Linux avec Wine c'est ARCHI-Simple! mais que dire d'installer AutoCAD 2007 qui vous oblige à installer Microsoft DirectX ?

Des fonctionnalités présentes sous AutoCAD 2007 ne sont pas présente sous 2000

[buletov]

Get 30% percent of corporate desktops to run Linux and Autodesk will make a Linux version of the AutoCad.

[ritsukoq]

ohhhhhhhhh, this is is ama.... is a crap, yes autocad runs in linux but its imposible working, only autocad 2000 works (50% and slow) realy the commands are realy slow, yes the video shows a fluid movement but whe you try to draw line by commands the program is realy slow.

[dieeeeeeeeeeego]

Currently AutoCAD 2008 works. And 2005 works perfectly, i have been working on a tutorial on Wines AppDB.

So, it DOES work.

[mpereirawolf]

autocad 2008 runs slow? Do you have really try it?

[dieeeeeeeeeeego]

No, i work with 2005 and dont have any versioning sickness. :P

There isnt any need to use 2008, maybe if you have a new big computer with Vista and you want to make it even slower.

[cyborg4r]

printing works for you? i have autocad running almost perfectly in my ubuntu, but printig fails with a "memory allocation error"

[slamelov]

I'm interested in running Acad in Linux. What DLL's are you talking?

[andrewdonn]

My Jaw is on the friggin floor right now. UNREAL!!

[JamesWorldStudios]

mac sucks windows sucks linux sucks zenus is better!

[Mynameistux]

... do you turn the friction down in compiz to get the slow wobble, because that pwns.

[pfguerreiro]

Oi

Vc usou o Wine ??? Qualquer programa de windows pode correr no ubuntu ????

[nt5352]

Wow, can i find somewhere a manual to use autocad with Linux? Which DLL must i copy ?

[firecad2006]

just use WINE

[paky66]

c'mon man, have mercy :D tell us in detail how did you install acad on ubuntu..gaved a try with acad 2006/2008 ?

[jik85]

is it possible to install autocad 2006 or 2007 on linux..if yes how can i?

[Ericof]

Hey could you teacj me how to install autocad on Linux?

[SOUNDDJDIEGOG]

oye ¿enserio es AUTOCAD en Linux? o ¿es otro programa parecido? yo soy ingeniero eléctrico y me gustaría utilizar AUTOCAD en LINUX

[konkan2007]

ubuntu 7.04???

[samuelsobreira]

CAD no linux? demoro!

[2fongs]

what autocad version is that

[kekojeep]

Autocad 2000.. using Wine, and some DLL's copied from an autocad installation on a windows machine.

[Rods37]

Please, could you describe what the DLL's copied? are There some "how to"? thank´s

[ueberRegenbogen]

Oooh. I like the circumscopic background when rotating the cube. Hadn't seen that done, yet.
