I installed an image of a few weeks ago so the one you mention has the  
right driver also. The driver is named if_muge.
The system should load this driver automaticly at boot.
See 'kldstat' if it is loaded or not.
With 'ifconfig' it will show up as 'ue0'.

What I find anoying is that the mac address of the ethernet changes every  
time you boot. So I hardcoded this in /etc/rc.conf.
ifconfig_ue0="ether 12:34:56:78:90:ab DHCP"

Instead of the number above I used one of the random values it used and I  
happened to register in my dhcp server/router.

Regards,
Ronald.
