I'm not entirely sure I'm afraid, having never needed to try. Maybe someone else can suggest a solution.
I did see a linux version of PC Suite in development somewhere but I'm not sure it was that feature rich yet.
Personally I sync over the air to my Google calendar with http://nuevasync.com/
My Google calendar is also synced to Thunderbird on my Ubuntu desktop. Works very well.

Ultimately, with Ubuntu One now being the subject of a big push by Canocial, I would hope the N900 will get support from this (I am also a fellow Ubuntu user and ditched Windows a couple of years ago).
Since the release of Lucid a couple of weeks ago a lot more people are trying to get onto Ubuntu One than ever before and this is causing a lot of problems with capacity. The Ubuntu One team are working on this, so I suspect over the next few weeks this is all they will be doing. After this though, and in fairness their team is very fast and hard working, they will start to look at other things. Phone syncing is in beta on Ubuntu One right now but the N900 is not supported.
You can add your support to this group - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntuone-client/+bug/512052 - and hopefully the more people who do this, the more likely it is the phone will get supported.

works out of box for me
I have got WinXP running in VirtualBox with Nokia PC Suite - and that reads the contacts off the N900. Pretty much all that is needed to make this happen is to add the N900 as a USB device in VirtualBox.
I've copied my /home folder off the N900 and will pull that copy to pieces later to see what is going on with the file system. I like to know where things get stored :-)
