A driver written for Linux will not work on FreeBSD, two entirely different operating systems..

The "Linux" emulation, which isn't really emulation, is for user-land applications only..

If the Ethernet chipset isn't supported, you'll have to wait until it is.. vendor supplied drivers for BSD are rare, most are developed by dedicated developers. (From either documentation, or reverse engineering..).
