Marvell Yukon 88e8059 support

[jamescotolett]

Hi All,
after installation of FreeBSD 8 64bit,system tell me that i haven't any valid ethernet card.
My Marvell Yukon 88E8059 ethernet controller is not supported on if_msk module(msk man page).
Anyone know if this driver is under development (and will be avaible soon) or if exist any workaround?
I have tried with ndisgen but there are some errors...

Thanks in advance and sorry for my english

James
