I'm now using AiDroid via wifi on my Galaxy Nexus for these kind of tasks.
Awsome app!

I don't know if someone managed to make Android MPT devices work with
OpenBSD.

Err, are you using your UTP cable with your Nexus 7?!?
Nothing prevents you from using copper ethernet with your laptop and wifi
on the N7...

Hi,

  I had previously connected to my Galaxy Nexus with gphoto2, but it 
was flaky, I don't remember if I used PTP or MTP.  I don't think any 
current model Androids will mount as usb storage by design.
  Now I am using Nexus Media Importer from the google play store and 
transferring via usb stick, it's working so far.  It doesn't require 
root access enabled on your phone.  It's simple to make a usb host cable 
for the phone and now I can also connect a keyboard and mouse.
 A usb host cable has the unconnected pin4 of the micro-usb connected 
to gnd-pin5.  I think they are also sold on Amazon.
