I have used a number of operating systems, including Linux and FreeBSD, and am thinking about adding OpenBSD to the list. (This would be i386, or amd64 if the latter has enough features: my hardware will support it). I use a UVC Webcam with Linux, and it would increase my motivation to try OpenBSD if such equipment would also work with that OS. I heard that 4.4 offered "partial" support, and there are more recent releases than that. Has anyone here tried using such a Webcam (say, with Skype or Ekiga?). Skype probably doesn't work unless Linux emulation is pretty well-developed, as with FreeBSD, but there should be a native port of Ekiga.
