NM ignores Motorola Q phone

[Tony Seward <anthony seward ieee org>]

I'm trying to connect to the internet via my Motorola Q phone MediaNet
data plan.

I am running Fedora 11

When I plug in my phone with a USB cable, I get the following log
entries

A device eth1 shows up when I run ifconfig, but nm-tool and the
NetworkManager Applet don't see anything.

I don't know how to troubleshoot this further.

Can anyone help?
