The success you will have depends on the notebook.
I had absolutely no success on toshiba's, and some success on 
NEC versa/P. Avoid using irq 3, configure and test the
card using the windows drivers they provide. After it is
configured and working in DOS, copy down the config information
reboot fbsd and do a kernel -c to supply the proper setup info.

Remember that on some notebooks it will not work no matter
what you do :-(

I eventually returned the 3c589c card and got some b rev's.
You should try the new pccard support for 2.1 and current.
It has worked as advertised for me and should support the C rev
unless you have one of those "will never work" notebooks.
 
so a quick "good job" for hosokawa@mt.cs.keio.ac.jp and 
it gets my vote as the first thing you should try :-)
