I understand your point - but don't think it applies here with the huge difference in quality between kicad and gEDA. The comparison would be more like between bash and DOS - one is clearly better. I've used both of them - (and several commercial products over the decades - kicad is better than some commercial products ). kicad is at home in a production environment - something I cant say for gEDA. BTW - I would run Debian instead of Ubuntu or SuSe ... a much shorter path to the guys that actually write the code. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Karl Schmidt EMail k...@xtronics.com Transtronics, Inc.
