Don't use wine. Try to use 'Play on Linux' instead.

Follow : http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=6035

This tell that wine may not work for autocad 2006.

Best way is to use 'Play on Linux'.

Being a Windows-only program, you will need to run it under Wine. Look for it at http://appdb.winehq.org/ for more information. It looks like some other things need to be installed first (there is mention of using winetricks to install .net and some other things first). After that there still seems to be a problem with license activation, though there is a workaround if you have another computer running Windows available.

Be sure to look at each of the different test results on winehq's apps page for Autocad 2006 -- the one on Ubuntu 8.10 shows what needs to be installed first with winetricks, and the one on 9.04 describes the license workaround.

Can you help with this problem?
