Actually PTC ProEngineer has had a Linux version of Wildfire (their latest CAD program) for about a year or more. The problem is that SolidWorks and ProE are 3D CAD more for Mechanical/Aerospace engineering than Civil/Architectural work. There is where AutoCAD still reigns. However it should be easier to do a 2D CAD program than a 3D one. In particular a parametric 3D program.
