Virgin USB modem for Mobile Broadband in Australia - F10 Network Manager crash

People,

It appears some people have been able to get this Huawei E169 modem going but I haven't had any success with F10. I do:

umount /media/VIRGIN\ BROADBAND/
rmmod usb_storage
rmmod usbserial
modprobe usbserial vendor=0x12d1 product=0x1001
echo "ATZ^M" > /dev/ttyUSB0
system-config-network

- the device displays (ttyUSB0) but when I click on "Edit" to continue setting up the connection the program crashes - I attach the full traceback but the salient lines are:

File "/usr/share/system-config-network/netconfpkg/NCDevice.py", line 177, in getDialog
raise NotImplemented
TypeError: exceptions must be classes, instances, or strings (deprecated), not NotImplementedType

Thanks,

Phil.
