Possible NetworkManager problem with 2.6.35-rc3

In order to get my sata controller to work I built a current kernel using
the config file from my Fedora 13 system.

Everything works except for networking.

It uses the forcedeth driver, but network manager does not want to see the
card whatsoever.

When I try and start the card through /etc/init.d/network start I get
messages about not being able to start the connection.

Is there something special I have to set in the kernel config to get this
to work or do I have to get a new version of Network Manager.

It looks like it cannot find all of the driver information.

Any ideas?
