I believe that you need:
tlp*	at pci? dev ? function ?	# DECchip 21x4x (and clones) Ethernet
ukphy*	at mii? phy ?			# generic unknown PHYs

in your config (or that's what I've got in my PC)
dmesg:
tlp0 at pci0 dev 11 function 0: Lite-On 82C169 Ethernet, pass 2.0
tlp0: interrupting at irq 9
tlp0: Ethernet address 00:a0:cc:66:25:8a
ukphy0 at tlp0 phy 1: Generic IEEE 802.3u media interface
ukphy0: OUI 0x001018, model 0x0021, rev. 2
ukphy0: 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, auto

However you've probably tried that.  What chip is actually on the card?  Does 
it work in a PC?
