I have no problem to compile and connect using CiscoVPN + 2.6.31, but
this is unstable solution. After some time (seconds or minutes) whole
computer is freezing dead.

vpnc is no option, because he lacks supports of certs auth.

I think something was changed in kernel Tun-Tap layer (or something
like that) that cause CIscoVPN problem.
