Take a look at the output of "pciconf -v -l".  The odds are that it 
lists a PCI ID for your NIC that the FreeBSD driver doesn't know about.

Use that information to update /usr/src/sys/pci/if_rlreg.h and 
/usr/src/sys/dev/re/if_re.c, and see whether that gets you a working 
driver.  If you're not sure how to do this, post the pciconf info for 
just your NIC so that others can try to update the code and get you a 
working driver...
