I tried openbsd for that reason. the 575BT works VERY fine with it,
but there is no java and too few ports, and the security got on my
nerves...

so I upgraded to -current which currently doesn't work with cardbus
because it seems to be broken at the moment (at least the NEWCARD
config file says so) and sofar I run GENERIC. seems stable enough
for me to wait for the re-enabled NEWCARD
