Camtasia was free for a short period of time - if you can find that free version somewhere then that apparently works fairly well.
The most popular alternative I would think of is Camstudio, but that was intended for screen recording in general and not game recording. You'll have to play with the frame rate until it's smooth. I can't remember if I had the same lag as I had with Fraps back when I tried Camstudio. It's free and worth a shot I guess.
There are other ones like WeGames and XFire that will record for you, though I don't know too much about them.
