I googled a lot on "webcam and freebsd" but could not find something

a /dev/video* which on my fbsd-6R does not exist. I trust devfs should
have made one if needed..
I still at a loss on how to use my webcam on freebsd. It shouldn't be
too hard I'm told. Well, whatever.. It is in dmesg, but further than
that it can not be used. Who has some pointers?
As a matter of fact google comes up with a few useful links:

Sure, but they all relate to some kind of live cam broadcasting. That's
not what I'm looking for. I just wonder WHY the cam is detected at boot
time and cannot be found i.e. by kopete. If it exists it should be found
somewhere shouldn't it?
Sorry, i didn't follow the discussion... could you please post your
dmesg line related to your web-camera ? There are plenty of user-land
programs working well with generic usb driver: /dev/ugen.Did you already
try them ?
