You might want to try the latest Intel driver from their site, or 
alternatively I think the latest driver has been merged to 6.1-STABLE. I 
had a Intel Pro/1000 PT, and it was only recognised in -CURRENT. Using 
the official Intel driver allowed me to get it running on 6.1. This was 
prior to the recent MFC of the newer driver.
