It should.

Obviously it doesn't work on your setup.  See the recent discussion in
freebsd-mobile why using an IRQ is a 'good thing', as well as why some
folks won't to have that ability remove.

This line describes all of the drivers that are configured.  Note that
fdc is not supported.

That's because it doesn't recognize that the card was inserted, which is
your original question.  Change the line you describe above and it
should work fine.
