Your options are:

OCROpus
http://ocropus.googlecode.com/

Cuneiform
https://launchpad.net/cuneiform-linux

OCROPus relies on Tesseract:

They're all very much under development at the moment, therefore stability is
not to be expected.

I haven't tried any of these as I don't have an optical scanner.

There may be other projects as well.
