Hi,

Basically devd is responsible for attaching webcamd automagically.

Default rule is to look for .bInterfaceClass = 0x0e :

cat /usr/local/etc/devd/webcamd.conf

# Generic USB video devices.
notify 100 {
        match "system"          "USB";
        match "subsystem"       "INTERFACE";
        match "type"            "ATTACH";
        match "intclass"        "0x0e";
        action "/usr/local/etc/rc.d/webcamd start $cdev";
};


Maybe your webcam needs a specific rule to attach automagically.


The problem is that it DID work.

I could boot with both cams connected, devd would start two instances of webcamd, one for each camera, and there was corresponding /dev/video? files.

Some time after n244736-dba7b0ef928 it stopped working, and now only one instance is started. If I try to start it manually with 'service webcamd start ugen2.4' it says "webcamd already running?"

Starting webcamd directly, not using the service command, it works:

# webcamd -d ugen2.4 -B
webcamd 20157 - - Attached to ugen2.4[0]
