V2.0 is NOT supported by FreeBSD yet.  FYI, this one has Marvell's 
Yukon controller.

The previous 'version' used SysKonnect Genesis and XaQti XMAC II 
combo.  V2.0 is sort of compatible with the previous version in many 
ways but identification/initialization change is required.

No, bge supports SK-9D21.
