As with any linux distro or other OS, it will lack most of the drivers, that are closed source in Maemo.

Though meego for n900 should help on this a bit.

You can run ubuntu and debian natively. It just lacks drivers and most of the resources haven't been maintained ):

Pointless, but, I'm going to try and get Angstrom running on N900 today or in the near future (should have results by the weekend).

Angstrom and uboot

There are already a lot of linux OS's that run.
Ubuntu
Fedora
Debian
ARCH
Android
Meego

If you were inclined, you could try use Meego modules/drivers as these have the best support (ofono and camera etc).
