I'm looking for a vector drawing program (not a bitmap converter) for Red Hat Linux. Hopefully one that supports a tablet and can export as an eps. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Kurt

I'd have to second the recommendation for sodipodi, and also add:
http://www.gnome.org/projects/dia
Dia is more oriented towards technical diagrams, but is my replacement for "xfig". Also, inkscape is very promising:

I'll second jorgy - Inkscape (a Sodipodi offshoot, I think) looks worth investigating, although I know the URL as http://inkscape.sourceforge.net/ - same site, different entry door
Another possibility, perhaps less feature-rich but maybe still worth a look, is Skencil (formerly Sketch) - http://www.skencil.org/, which re-directs you to http://www.nongnu.org/skencil/index.html
There is also a commercial vector program, Artstream, available at http://www.mediascape.com/artstream-linux.html
Apart from the export formats, Moho can also function to some extent as a vector drawing program.
