In order to get a webcam working under FreeBSD I bought one that was 
supported by the graphics/vid port. Apparently the "Creative Labs WebCam 
3" is supported by that port so if that's your camera you should be able 
to install the port and then away you go. Otherwise other than google I 
don't know what to suggest.

I presume your camera is recognised as a ugen when you plug it in? Check 
it is listed by running usbdevs

Hope that helps a little.

Andrew
