i did have that but it complain that it's already loaded. so i took that 
off.  after a bit more research i just sent this to the net list:

"""
does anybody here know if freebsd has a driver for Marvell 88E8057 nic 
chip?

according to the kernel list of drivers (7.2) marvell chips are driven 
by the msk driver. but it doesn't show up in pciconf, dmesg or 
sysinstall....
strangely enough 88E8057 is not in the list in man msk. although 88E8056 
and 88E8058 are. is this just bad luck?!
"""

thanks Polytropon...
