Great! I just got it (the last on on the shelf), but due to major
problems with my desktop (upgrade gone VERY bad), I don't want to touch
my laptop. Maybe later this week.

Simply inserting give me:
cardbus1: CIS pointer is 0!
cardbus1: Resource not specified in CIS: id=10, size=800
cardbus1: <multimedia> at device 0.0 (no driver attached)

My system is current as of about a week ago and my only Cardbus device
(Xircom RBEM56G-100) probes correctly.

I have not built a kernel for the system with bktr, so that is likely at
least a part of the problem. :-)
