There is a Win9x based 2D CAD package called CadStd at http://www.cadstd.com
I have found it to be a great high school level 2D package. There are free downloads and the pro version is $15.00 I think. I haven't run it under Wine but plan to try soon. When I emailed him about 6 months ago, the author seemed very ready to port a version to Linux. I don't know where he is on that project, and I don't know his stand on open source, but I have encouraged him. You may want to contact him and see where he's at with a Linux version, or at least to check out the functionality of CadSTD.
