A lot depends on what you want to do.
Scribus is a pretty decent full-line DTP environment for Linux, but it hasn't 
always been the most stable...  Recent releases seem pretty good, however.
There's a new-kid on the block called Laidout (laidout.org), it's not totally 
new, but newly useable.  It's pretty rough in many spots (e.g. text flow is 
missing and text handling in general is pretty limited), but if you're looking 
for something more like a comic-book layout tool or greeting-card maker, it 
looks pretty good.
There's also an older project for more newspaper-style layout, passepartout 
(http://www.stacken.kth.se/project/pptout/), but it hasn't been updated since 
August 2007, so it has bugs and issues that (quite probably) won't get fixed.

I don't know of any other (aside from the commercial titans like the InDesign 
suite) significant products in that space.
