Looking for Circuit CAD and simulation (optinal) for Fedora!

In reply to everyone who responded, I ran into
a couple of issues when trying to figure out how
to install gEDA on Fedora....


1) Created the CD, plugged the CD into the CD-player
   and Fedora FC5 does not autorun.  Oddball was
   I also have a 2nd CD/DVD (both RW) and it seems
   to autorun but I could not run ./installer maybe
   because the mount properties are not correct.

2) Digging deeper, the README says that if autorun
   fails, then to manually mount with gentoo/debian
   style, which I did, and I was then able to run
   the installer script.

   I had assumed at this point that following the
   wizard instructions, to define the source and
   installation directory would somehow take care
   of things for the proper environment, i.e. a
   Fedora environment for it's filesystem structure
   but I guess I was wrong...  it was not installed
   in the correct place(s).

   Can anyone tell me how to properly install gEDA
   on Fedora or point me to the links where I can
   read up on it and install it right?

Thanks to all!
Dan
