I am writing this on my T61p (I don't know if there is a substantial
difference). I have:

# dmesg | grep card
cardslot0 at cbb0
cardbus0 at cardslot0: bus 8
pcmcia0 at cardslot0

I won't be able to test a cardbus card until Monday at work. The
laptop runs amd64-current:

# uname -a
NetBSD lisa 5.99.48 NetBSD 5.99.48 (GENERIC) #1: Sat Mar 12 02:01:40
GMT 2011  root@lisa:/usr/src/sys/arch/amd64/compile/GENERIC amd64

The only change to GENERIC is

# cat /usr/src/sys/arch/amd64/conf/GENERIC.local
options         PCI_INTR_FIXUP          # PCI interrupt routing via ACPI
options         PCI_BUS_FIXUP           # fixup PCI bus numbering
options         PCI_ADDR_FIXUP          # fixup PCI I/O addresses

- otherwise I get error messages for both the cardbus adapter and the
SD card reader; with the fixups they both work (although I haven't
actually tries the cardbus for quite some time, so couldn't be sure).

I've got iwn on this laptop, which has never failed:

# dmesg | grep iwn

All in all, this is the best laptop I've ever had...
