You can do this with the composite transition in kdenlive install kdenlive.

Watch this video tutorial to find out how and, as a bonus, how to do a green screen effect.

+1 for suggesting Kdenlive. Whilst being a professional video editing tool, it's fantastic for beginners. – its_me Dec 6 '11 at 10:30

Here's a tutorial using Cinelerra.

Unfortunately it seems you have to manually compile it, if you are using the latest Ubuntu 10.10 "Maverick Meerkat": http://cinelerra.org/getting_cinelerra.php#ubuntu

thanx for the answers, i tried cinelerra, is pretty heavy, i follow all the instructions to install it..but it looks ugly, hard to understand, its not comprehensive, you need to guess everything, i think i'll try kdenlive, i feel bad that there are some tutorials for windows movie maker in youtube i hope some people start uploading tutorials of this effect to use it in openshot, and other linux programs, ill watch the kdenlive tutorial – punkmexic Dec 4 '10 at 4:12
carlicuslinux has a few openshot tutorials and thisweekinlinux has a set of kdenlive tutorials. – dv3500ea Dec 4 '10 at 14:42
