The problem with dhclient ist a different problem.
Here the kernel driver does not detect and support the tether hw device and so 
there is no network interface usbX.

I don't know if this is really a bug in Linux kernel driver. Maybe the USB 
standard says the master interface need to start with 0.
Then the bug is in Android OS.
Newer Android versions >= 2.3.7 has switched back the master interface nr to 0 
and there it works again...

Nevertheless I am disappointed that there is no comment by Ubuntu or
Google developers for over 4 months about this although I've provided a
patch to show the problem.

Is the kernel supported, Mr. Mark Shuttleworth!?
