I have - but not with ipw per se.

After I _unload_ ipw, it won't recognise any PC card that I insert.
It just says:

  pccard0: Card has no functions!
  cbb0: PC Card card activation failed

When I reload ipw, it works again.  Indicates that something is messed
up by ipw?

(Thinkpad X40, 5.3R, ipw 1.6.3, xorg 6.7.0, no "device apic" in kernel
- won't resume properly with, no "options INET6", using ACPI)
