I ask in flexcoders list and John Dowdell made some internal research about this topic, and report that Linux Flash Player 9 would be ready 2 or 3 months after the win/mac release. They want to reach the current milestone before the linux one. You can see more on this in his thread:

2006/5/16, Till Schneidereit <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Hi Carlos,
can you point me to any source for your claims about Flash Player availability on Linux? I've been looking for any information on that since Tinic[1,2] and Emmy[2] posted about this topic. In these posts, Emmy came closest to giving any information about the release date when she stated "Based on the short time frame between announcing Flash Player 8 and Flash Player 8.5, we decided to work on developing a Linux version for Flash Player 8.5, which will ship after the Windows and Mac versions."
cheers,
till
