Thanks for all the replies and suggestions. I found Qucs mentioned in the FEL docs. I have decided to start with that as it has a very intuitive GUI, appears to have a fast learning curve, and supports circuit simulations. By following the qucs help documents, I have done a simple DC simulation similar to the one in this video below. http://www.youtube.com/watch?gl=GB&v=VYhWK_lUrFw Thanks for all the other suggestions which I have bookmarked and will start to check out if Qucs cannot handle what I need it for.

I might install individual packages from that, like electric and test them out.

I have installed the Freeware version of EAGLE, and it looks really good. Will check out the others as well.

I just need a CAD program to design simple audio circuits, like a passive mixer. Here's an interesting circuit: http://www.epanorama.net/circuits/linemixer.html It would be nice if the CAD program can give me some idea of the gain achieved, as I change various components. I would like to print out the circuit diagram as well. Another plus would be the option to convert a working standard circuit diagram layout, into the equivalent layout for using strip board. I'll check out the suggest CAD packaages and get back to the list with my findings.

Not so great if what you're trying to do is capture to perform SPICE simulations, but a really great 2D drawing tool. There are additional parts libraries for it available online, and it's not hard to create your own, either. Output/working files are Postscript, so they're easily opened and converted in GIMP if needed. -- KevinO ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
