In my setup, dotnet does work, but it must be installed with winetricks before autocad setup. For 2008 you should install with winetricks dotnet20, corefonts, mshml3 and cc85 (the native common dialogs) as the built-in ones have some problem and crashes often. Then, copy from windows urlmon.dll, shlwapi.dll and iertutil.dll end set urlmon.dll and shlwapi.dll as NATIVE (NOT Native+Builtin). That's all, it runs, but have still many not-so-random crashes, it must be investigated. If you use it for work, I suggest you autocad2005, that one is rock stable. Ciao Max
