Thnak a lot for your answer!
Actually I knew about this one:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=118975
but i wanted to know if it was already merged/solved/taken as officical/ or 
so...
Basically, if it was approved or not in order to go witfbsd7 obsd4.3 (Dell 
vostros and inspirons both come packed with BCM5906M and I really don't have 
to duke it out with and ethernet card =P).

Again, thanks for your answer!
Blessings
