Do you mean a "media center" like Windows Media Center Edition? There are a variety of these for Linux. The best known and most extensive is MythTV. There are binary packages for Ubuntu you can download from the repositories. There are also combination OS+Myth packages like Mythdora for Fedora (somehat out of date at the moment) and Mythbuntu for Ubuntu.

Another strong contender is the port of "XBox Media Center" to other platforms including Windows, Mac, and Linux.

There's a very extensive set of threads about using Linux, and Myth and xbmc in particular, for a media center here.
