[plug] TUN/TAP support in Debian sarge (2.6 kernel).

[Shayne O'Neill]

Its for hamachi, ( www.hamachi.cc ) 

Part of its install is it needs a functional tun driver (It's a sort of
"zero config" router-happy vpn system).

But yeah, the whole;-

"File descriptor in bad state" message is a bit odd. All the references
I find say "you havent got the tun module. 'cept I have. :( "
