N900 is meant to be an online device. Trying to download apps to the PC first makes it quite complicated, plus installing locally available software packages with dpkg cannot and will NOT automatically check for dependencies, so it is very likely that you will run into problems and stuff like "Installing this requires also installing bla1 and bla2 which cannot be found". It's definitely way easier to get network access for the N900 instead.

If that doesn't work you'll need to install the "rootsh" package, which of course you need rootsh to install the package by hand ... like circular logic there..
rootsh should be really small.. you sure you cant use the grps to get just that one package?

if you don't have it available for installation using the application manager, you need to enable the "Extras" repository (called "maemo.org" repository since the latest firmware).
