Im a linux user too, but for my own good i always have a dual boot on my laptop, because sometimes we have to use windows. Windows for my is an utility. think about it, dual boot can help you with some stuff.

For now is well known that Ovi Contacts are broken.
STAY AWAY FROM OVI CONTACTS SYNC.
The service since the beginning DOES NOT supporting multiple fields under same title. For example you cannot have a contact with two or more Mobile phones assign to him. If thats the case on your phone only ONE field is syncing to Ovi Contacts while other fields are lost in air. Then if it happens to sync down you are getting your contacts back with missing information.
This issue reported multiple times to Nokia and the Ovi Team and yet they did nothing to fix it, neither ever gave a respond.

Well, they do respond in a way: They made OVI Contacts more user friendly by adding the "server doesn't respond"
To be serious, though:
Not responding, not fixing is Nokia's standard procedure with Ovi. You get a response to you first mail, and no matter what your mail was, this response is always
Take the battery out for at least one minute, deep-reset the device and flash with the latest firmware.
I think this first answer is only an auto-reply sent with a certain delay so it looks like somebody read your mail.

Ovi did update on my n900, and download my contacts, but I haven't tried since flashing the phone to the release firmware.
