The drawings I'm talking about are just diagrams for a paper, not
technical drawings.
Thanks,

I use the openoffice suite for drawings for presentations. It's similar to

For mechanical drawings I use Varicad. It, however, cost $100 academic.

I need to make a few drawings for a paper I'm working on. The drawings I'm
talking about will just be lines, arrows, and numbers, essentially. Can
anyone suggest some good Linux software for this task?
My criteria for goodness are basically that it be free (as in beer), easy
to learn to use (at least at a basic level) and featureful/stable enough to
be used for my modest purposes.
I've used Adobe Illustrator for these purposes once or twice before, but it
seems like overkill, and I can't use it at home on my Linux machine. I
looked around and saw some promising sounding candidates, like Sketch and
Inkscape. And maybe you can do everything I want with the Gimp easily
enough. I figured that someone else probably has experience with this.
