Attempt to resolve non-existant TUN issues on custom roms about ics-openvpn HOT 10 CLOSED

The problem is that this app relies on the System Service of the tun opening, 
route setting etc. I would have to duplicate all that for the "broken" images. 
And I would prefer if the custom ROMs would fix their VPNService support.

Can you check if /dev/tun exists? Perhaps it has only the wrong rights like on 
my CM9 image.

ls -l /dev/tun
crw-r----- vpn vpn 10, 200 2012-05-24 12:21 tun

I have found in the past that deleting and then re-running mknod for the tun 
module (mknod /dev/tun c 10 200) fixed it, but I'm guessing that just reset the 
permissions or the owner of that device?

See the FAQ. For my image a chown system /dev/tun is enough. What image are you 
using? CM9?

Spot on. It's Andromadus version "Beta_2", which is based off CM9.

Perhaps you could have "If /dev/tun can't be loaded, try su - -c chown system 
/dev/tun"?

Is there a ticket logged for this at all on the CM9 site? If not, I'll raise 
one.

I have not checked if there was a ticket on the CM9 site. The Defy port of CM9 
uses a motorola kernel (locked bootloader) and a motorola devtree so I thought 
it I would be specific to my image. I will into the su - stuff.

If you raise a ticket please add the URL to the ticket to this bug tracker so 
other people don't have to search the CM bug tracker.

"NO NIGHTLIES, UNOFFICIAL, SNAPSHOT, home-builds, or anything "based on"
CyanogenMod.

No CM9 reports will be accepted at this time."

Damn.

http://bugs.andromadus.com/issues/34 <- Not raised by me, but is relevant for 
my device.

Thanks for checking
