You need two gears. One would be a sprocket. The other would be a straight bar with equally spaced gear teeth similar to the round gear teeth(sprocket).

You can also acheive linear movement from circular movement using a belt. Take apart an old radio and see how the pointer is moved across the display using the Tuner Knob.
