No. webcamd has become kind of a misnomer, it's in fact just a `wrapper' for several kinds of Linux usb kernel drivers to run them in FreeBSD userland.

Testing Wacom usb tablet with webcamd svn (and mypaint)
Hi! My dad likes to paint a bit so I got him a Wacom tablet as a present (Bamboo Pen & Touch), and I thought I could help getting it working on FreeBSD while I was at it... Asked hps, who kindly prepared a webcamd update that adds support: svn --username anonsvn --password anonsvn \ checkout svn://svn.turbocat.net/i4b/trunk/ports cd ports/multimedia/webcamd && make all install clean which I now tested with a preliminary x11-drivers/input-wacom xorg driver update that I prepared: http://people.freebsd.org/~nox/tmp/inputwacom.patch I had to rebuild xorg-server without hal support because apparently hal and thus the xserver picked up webcamd's /dev/input node for the wacom which made my mouse misbehave (proper hal configs to ignore webcamd's device node welcome, :) and I added this to xorg.conf: snip--- Section "ServerLayout" ... InputDevice "stylus" InputDevice "eraser" ... EndSection ... Section "InputDevice" Driver "wacom" Identifier "stylus" Option "Device""/dev/input/event0" Option "Type" "stylus" Option "USB" "on" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Driver "wacom" Identifier "eraser" Option "Device""/dev/input/event0" Option "Type" "eraser" Option "USB" "on" EndSection snip--- ..and that appears to have got graphics/mypaint working (which btw needs x11-toolkits/py-gtk2 rebuilt with the NUMPY knob on), with both the stylus and eraser of my (dad's) tablet. (mypaint ignores the pad device so I removed it from xorg.conf again, see the wacom(4x) manpage and the input-wacom wiki.) Happy testing, and thanks to Hans!
