Correct, the 3805 is not supported in FreeBSD 6.x or -CURRENT at the
moment.  Right you you'll need the driver from Adaptec's website.  If
I recall correctly the driver includes a precompiled .ko and a readme
file explaining how to install it.

I plan to merge the support for these cards from Adaptec's driver into
-CURRENT and then to RELENG_6, but I'm not sure when it will happen
relative to the 7.0 timeline.
