Are you logging into the N900 as root?

In that case the authorized_keys file should be in /root/.ssh

Code:

Nokia-N900-42-11:~/.ssh# pwd
/root/.ssh
Nokia-N900-42-11:~/.ssh# ls -l
-rw-------    1 root     root         1124 Nov 27 04:05 authorized_keys
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root         1080 Nov 25 21:59 known_hosts
Nokia-N900-42-11:~/.ssh#
