I have this same card under FreeBSD 3.4 and it's working fine for me. Default kernel from 3.4 iso image find this card and install properly, so don't worry about this list, just install. I had bad expierience with boot disks ( doesn't find tekram DCU390 scsi controller ), so I use only ios image. Greetings.
