Another great graphics program is Ipe (extensible drawing editor).

See http://ipe.compgeom.org/

It produces pdf and eps. It can import pdf or eps through a conversion. It is great for technical drawings -- it has precise, almost CAD-like snapping capabilities. It also uses latex for text, so you can enter math equations right along with your drawings (you don't have to use the output with latex; you can use openoffice or whatever).

It has a nice Qt user interface and is available for linux as well as ms-windows.
