Ok the pkg repo may not be updated with the new version yet, the latest 
I see is still 08. I think the problem though is you aren't using the 
GENERIC kernel, so the module from the pkg repo is failing to load at 
boot. You should build the module from ports instead, or use the GENERIC 
kernel. Let me know if that works for you!
