I've never done it on a *nix box...but I know the big one everyone talks about. It's called Cinelerra. Not really for end users though. That is the real deal Hollywood stuff.

The ones you should try out are:
Virtualdub: http://www.virtualdub.org/
Kino: http://www.schirmacher.de/arne/kino/index_e.html
MJPEG tools: http://mjpeg.sourceforge.net/
or MainActor: http://www.mainconcept.com/

One of those should suit your needs fine.
