I may be wrong, but I believe even though this is a pci card you still have to enter the
id information in
/usr/src/sys/isa.sioc and rebuild you kernel.  Then you would configure the irq and
address at boot time with boot -c

The example of how this works is at http://www.freebsd.org/FAQ/hardware.html#AEN942 and
says this.

Q: I have an internal Plug & Play modem and FreeBSD can't find it.

A: You will need to add the modem's PnP ID to the PnP ID list in the serial driver. To
enable Plug & Play support,
compile a new kernel with controller pnp0 in the configuration file, then reboot the
system. The kernel will print the
PnP IDs of all the devices it finds. Copy the PnP ID from the modem to the table in
/sys/i386/isa/sio.c, at
about line 2777. Look for the string "SUP1310" in the structure "siopnp_ids[]" to find the
table. Build the kernel
again, install, reboot, and your modem should be found.

You may have to manually configure the PnP devices using the `pnp' command in the
boot-time configuration with a
command like

   pnp 1 0 enable os irq0 3 drq0 0 port0 0x2f8


to make the modem show.

Good luck,
