It sure looks like you don't have it physically powered up.  The T60 has
a switch on the front next to the IR cover... you have to slide it to
the right to turn on the Bluetooth device... it'll show up on the USB
bus.  Watch your kernel log (usually /var/log/kern.log) to see if it
does (lsusb will show it as a Broadcom device).  Then try...
