What works
works in unregistered version
Everything that i have tested works. All commands and dialogues work and drawing works even with hardware acceleration.
LAYERS WORK PERFECT!!!
What does not
the activation window opens but nothing can be seen on it except the two option buttons
What was not tested
it has a hell of commands, i cant test them all, though as most are in design time i believe most of them should work.
Additional Comments
Packages installed in winetricks:
allfonts
gdiplus
mshflxgd
vb6run

i dont know if all of them are needed cause i had formated my comp just now and installed almost everything i would need from the begining.
1. Use recent version of Wine(tested with Wine-1.1.17)
2. Download winetricks by following command
wget http://www.kegel.com/wine/winetricks
3. Install required components by following command
sh winetricks corefonts gdiplus gecko tahoma
It will take some time because winetricks will download all above components
4. navigate to your AutoCAD 2005 CD and run
wine setup.exe
