Binary package hint: network-manager

The same modem works fine with Fedora 10, Fedora 11, Intrepid, Jaunty, and DID work with Karmic until at least August 7th. Additional information from logs is below. And I've rebooted to Fedora 11 between failures with Karmic to verify that the modem and local provider are functional.

As another issue, removing the USB device causes an immediate, reproducible, "keyboard light blinking" kernel failure with no information in the logs.
