Thanks for the info. My problem with the NetworkManager was different. It would not allow me to call up either of my 2 usb 56k dialup modems (Zoom and US Robotics). The failure only happened under Ubuntu 9.10 as 9.04 worked fine. I needed to remove the software (sudo apt-get remove networkmanager) to get dialup working for me under Karmic Koala.
