The usb cable makes the mmc/sd card accessible on your PC, so you don't need a card reader. > It's available on the Maemo repository, though it's a bit fiddly to install > because you have to enable "red pill" mode on your device (there are > instructions on how to do this at > http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/maemo/users/26247) Why is this better than dropbear (which installs without fiddeling). Use it from the start and works perfectly (when copied a .ssh/authorized_keys on the device) (btw David. the copy command is called 'scp') Hm, maybe we should start a Wiki page 'Getting started with Linux using N880/N770' ... > Once you've set up public/private key-pairs, copying files between machines is > a simple one-line command. > > ...and handily, having ssh on the tablet provides a way of getting root on it, > since "su" doesn't play simply issue > "ssh -l root localhost" > Then give it the root password when it prompts you (I can't remember what it > is, but Google will find it).
