Google sketchup should probably fit the bill. Although a quick google
search shows that textures are limited to 1024x1024, I don't know if
that will be a problem?
It's a free download and I believe it runs under wine:

I've not had it working well here, but my graphics card (ATI) is not
very well supported, especially in dual screen mode, so it's way too
slow to be usable ;)
