.vsd no, but .vsd yes: dia

sudo apt-get install dia-gnome

Best bet is to have whoever made it export it to .dxf for you.

However, if you have an old copy of visio you can install via Wine. I
have an old 5.0 version working & if you need it converted send it to me
and I'll see if my version can open it up. I'll then print it to a pdf
and convert it to dxf & send it back to you.
