just find out that linux community is also have a replacement for vector graphics editor, just like corel draw and adobe illustrator. its called, Inkscape. Inkscape is an open source vector graphics editor, with capabilities similar to Illustrator, CorelDraw or Xara X, using the Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) file format. Inkscape runs on Linux, Windows and Mac OSX and features transparency, gradients, node editing, pattern fills, PNG export, and more.
browse more about inkscape in here, and for Ubuntu Maverick Meerkat 10.10 the installation is quite hassle from site's official documentation, because you need to compile it first. but as community resource there's always someone that already do the hassle and we get the happy ending. run this code below to install the inkscape in your terminal
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ricotz/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install inkscape
just sit back, and wait. its installation will run right after you hit enter last code.
when its all done, you can find it at application->graphics->Inkscape Vector Graphics Editor
