Well, we have something like that concerning
amd64 motherboards here:

http://www.freebsd.org/platforms/amd64/motherboards.html

The way I get it, FreeBSD developers focus on
the hardware they can lay their hands on. This
way they only require user input in case a bug
has been discovered. Thanks to relatively high
FreeBSD popularity, you can easily find out
whether your hardware is supported, using
yahoo or google.
