Sorry for my lack of knowledge..

But.. I'm pretty new to FreeBSD I'll admit, but I'm definitely using it.
Anyways, the last LINUX Distro that I installed (Slackware and Red Hat
both used that, I believe), used tulip.o, so I assumed FreeBSD did as
well, since it actually didn't let me tell it which driver to use.

The device is working perfectly. OR seems to be anyways, based on the
fact that I can see it, along with the correct MAC ID for it in an
ifconfig for dc0. Is 'dc' what you're talking about in this case?

                           ^^^^^^^

Really?  I suspect you may not be using FreeBSD.  Try a Linux group
instead?

(If you're /really/ on FreeBSD, I think you may want the 'dc' driver...)
