Tablet S ICS, VPN Interface, CONFIG_TUN

[A____K]

Gents,

there is a problem to establish VPN connections:

E/VpnJni  (162): Cannot allocate TUN: Bad file number.

It is apparently a known issue: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=21030

The CONFIG_TUN is not set, so it is not possible to create a VPN interface (some VPN functions, included into the default Google ICS code were dropped).

In order to use my mobile via Bluetooth it is a quite necessary functionality.

I would be utmost grateful if you could comment and/or provide a workaround or proper firmware update sorting this issue out!

Thanks a lot & best regards!
