i have it working under 2008.09.  you can read my writeup at 
http://www.teaparty.net/technotes/openmoko-2.html#GPRS , which points in 
turn to florian hackenberger's excellent step-by-step guide to turning on 
gsm muxing, at 
http://lists.openmoko.org/pipermail/community/2008-August/028495.html . 
you need to do all of it up to but not including the bit that starts "Now 
you can request a new device for the modem using".

it's not very complex to follow, and it means you won't need to shut down 
qpe every time you want to do GPRS.
