The closest thing would probably be Nvu, which is available in Ubuntu's
repositories. Nvu would at least replace (more or less) DreamWeaver. 

I'm not actually aware of any authoring tools for Flash under Linux --
I know some programs will export to SWF, but I'm not sure if you can do
all the fun animation goodness in them. OpenOffice.org Present will
export to SWF. 

Good luck,
