It's gnash.

Last time I tried it, it wouldn't really even run. Maybe it's improved
lately. I wouldn't count on it too much, though.
On the evil side, Adobe is working on the new Linux flash player which
sounds pretty sweet. (Not as sweet as me having the source, though).

Something else interesting I just found out about in this area,
swfdec. Apparently, it's way better than gnash. One of the gnome
developers has apparently been hacking away on it for the past month.
Read about it in his blog here:

I haven't tried it yet, but I certainly will soon.
