I am still interested and researching about this (actually, I just started yesterday).

I would expect to be able to set up a network connection between tablet and desktop through normal android tethering, but the checkbox in the settings interface, called through

adb shell am start -n com.android.settings/.TetherSettings

and which normally starts the network, on the T68 and the i86 instead opens the requester to enable exchanging files!

I am trying to set up a network via USB to test VNC through it (as planned one life ago). I believe some of the people here managed to. Otherwise, if when they wrote that they used VNC they actually did on the Wi-Fi network, it may be explained why some wrote about poor performance...
