Skype just sent me two webcams to help me get video working with skype.

usbdevs:
addr 2: USB camera, vendor 0x0c45

I've installed port multimedia/linux-gspca-kmod , run command kldload gspca 
and attached webcam.

 kernel: ldev0: <vendor 0x0c45 USB camera, class 0/0, rev 1.10/1.01, addr 2> 
on uhub0
 kernel: ldev_attach: sc at 0xcc6eb900, l_u_d at 0xcc6eb950
 kernel: --- allocate 459 bytes gives 0xcd2a4400
 kernel: interface 0 has 9 altsettings (cur 0)
 kernel: gspca_attach_bridge: USB GSPCA camera found. SONIX JPEG (sn9c1xx)
 kernel: spca5xx_probe: [spca5xx_probe:4259] Camera type JPEG
 kernel: spca5xx_getcapability: [spca5xx_getcapability:1239] maxw 640 maxh 480 
minw 160 minh 120
kernel: 229261868 [1117] video_register_device: to be fixed but ok for now
kernel: ldev0: vendor 0x0c45 USB camera, rev 1.10/1.01, addr 2

It works fine with multimedia/pwcbsd (viewer only - pwcview), but doesn't with 
skype:

kernel: 229613224 [1081] video_devdata: not complete but ok for now
kernel: spca5xx_set_light_freq: [spca5xx_set_light_freq:1920] Sensor currently 
not support light frequency banding filters.

kernel: ldev_ioctl: called

implemented

kernel: 229613530 [ 766] ldev_isoc_handler: usbd_cancelled 0xc862d800
kernel: 229613580 [ 766] ldev_isoc_handler: usbd_cancelled 0xcae87800
kernel: 229613630 [ 766] ldev_isoc_handler: usbd_cancelled 0xc6082800
kernel: 229613680 [ 766] ldev_isoc_handler: usbd_cancelled 0xc53a2200
kernel: 229613683 [ 959] usb_kill_urb: not complete but try something

After googling I also tried graphics/spcaview, but that errors with the 
following:

stargate# spca5view
:1: error: unexpected character `V', expected keyword - e.g. `style'
Not found target usb camera, or Permission denied.

Does anybody have a suggestion? I would very much like to get video working 
with skype.
