Here is a useful tip for anyone trying to use FUSE (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_in_Userspace) or MacFUSE with the sshfs driver.

This is an application which allows you to mount your tablet on you linux or Mac desktop as a drive (no windows port yet).

This will work perfectly with openssh, but if you use dropbear you will find a little problem. The dropbear server does not include an sftp server.
Fortunately you can easily workaround this by just installing the sftp-server from the openssh client.
I just did this by unpacking the openssh deb and copying the sftp-server to /usr/lib/openssh/

Now I can simply export files from iPhoto straight onto my 770 to play with Canola or Quiver

Note there was a deb on maemo.org to do this for 2005, but I could not find a new one or any reference in these forums so I thought I would document this little adventure for others.
