For some reason John is included, but compiled for x86, and so it won't run on the ARM processor in the N900. You should be able to download John and compile it for ARM yourself though, I would think. John has a really easy compiling process, but I've never tried it on ARM.

What other apps are doing that for you? I imagine the problem is the same, but I haven't come across any others yet.
