edit: bummer !! there's no 64bit version, so on my machine it doesn't work. (error: wrong ELFversion 32bits)Note: for anybody testing it (on 32 bit arch) here's how to use it:After installing, open up a console and type:

$ uniconv --help

That will reveal the simple command (-s) to convert a .cdr file to say a .svg file. The latter you may be able to open/view in Inkscape.

tested uniconvert on Mandriva 2008 (32bits). It worked like a charm when converting the .cdr file to .svg, .eps and .pdf. No problem opening it after the conversion. Also tested it converting to .odg format (OOo-draw). OOo-Draw could not open it. (OOo-2.3.0)So, one finally can use .cdr files to convert to a usable format in linux. However, let's wait for a 64bit version to become available.

For Fedora users:The package is in the Fedora 7 and 8 repos. (updates)
