I'm having trouble generating a patch here, since freebsd-utils
7.1-5 in Sid doesn't have a module-init-tools.templates file. The
changelog for 7.1-4 says "Rename module-init-tools to kldutils"...
For now I'll just attach my modified versions.

The revised version avoids the jargonism NIC, but dropping the
qualifier "many" makes it sound as if it's talking about
CONFIG_NETDEVICES (required for a kernel to support NICs at all).
I'd put it back, or indeed make it "most network cards".
I'd also say "^the^ default kernels".

"FreeBSD" is a modifying noun, which has to go after any adjectives,
and I think that "and" needs to be reinforced (to make it clear it's
"provides A + B", not "to set A + B"):
This package provides the original FreeBSD command to set keyboard layout,
plus the possible FreeBSD keyboards.

You most likely don't need any, since the default kernels currently include
built-in support for most network cards. You can always come back to this
