It used to start webcamd for both of them, now it is only started for the built in Chicony.

I have a similar problem. I have 3 cameras (one Logitech and two USB UVD things) and now it only starts webcamd for one. I can start it manually for the other two. I don't have the details now, but it seemed like when I started it for the second or third device, it said it was already running until I tried again.

Yes, there is something going on when you try to start multiple instances.

My cameras are at ugen1.7 and ugen2.4

# service webcamd start ugen1.7

# service webcamd start ugen2.4
webcamd already running?  (pid=4779).
# service webcamd stop
Stopping webcamd.

# ls /var/run/webcamd.*

Can you show:

ls /var/run/webcamd* for every step you do?


Sure:
