This PC Connectivity API will work only on Windows operations systems as it actually part of Nokia PC/Ovi Suite. There is no corresponding API package available for Linux.

I think N900 PC Suite mode is just standard USB Networking e.g. you get TCP/IP connection between device and PC. With IP network enabled and Maemo PC Connectivity installed you can connect device with ssh, rsync, sftp. Or you can mount device disks to your PC etc and do synchronization (and more) with device.
