No. The PCI detect does not know exactly which hardware you have,
but it does know the vender, that it has an id that has not been 
included in pci.h and pci.c. This will NOT keep the card from working
properly. If it really bothers you, you can add one line in pci.h and
probably one line in pci.c to replace the message. I did that for my
ethernet card.
