No, NM with this patch recognizes only dial up connections that were
established via itself (I use knetworkmanager to connect my modem). I don't
know anything about gnome-ppp, but kppp is incompatible with NM - NM
uses 'pon' and 'poff' utilities to connect/disconnect dial up connections (in
debian based systems), but kppp manages dialup connections on its own.
