Isn't the description above enough (at least w.r.t. PCMCIA Ethernet
card I'm using)?

Yes, I know. But both card I tried are supported by vanilla FreeBSD
GENERIC kernel.

One thing I'm not sure is that whether CardBus capability (Akia
Tornado TX233 does support CardBus!) doesn't affect the PCMCIA
Ethernet on FreeBSD or not.

Any suggestion, anyone?
