I use usbnet to connect to my PDA. Before NM 0.6.4-6ubuntu3 the usb0 device was ignored:

auto usb0
iface usb0 inet static
        address 192.168.0.200
        netmask 255.255.255.0

However now when I plug in my PDA, NM disables the interface. If I click on the applet I can select the usbnet device, but that then proceeds to drop the wifi connection to the outside world. Considering I had just done the usbnet connection so that I could get to the outside world from my PDA, that is useless.

How can I get NM to ignore this usb0 device?
