Shouldn't it be `none at pci0:13:0' if he hadn't configured the driver?
Looks quite attached to the device to me.
I am not sure if pciconf kldloads if_em.ko, but I doubt it.

`kldstat -v' might give clues. `if_em_load="YES"' in /boot/loader.conf
might help in case he does not have em in his kernel, but somehow
loaded it before making the above output.
