Thank you for the pointer, I had no idea webcamd supported things
other than webcams.  It does appear to work out of the box... When I
attach it to the correct ugen device it creates /dev/input/event0
which does output something when the screen is touched.

Do you have any info on hooking Xorg up to the /dev/input/event0?  I
believe this would be xf86-input-evdev on the Linux side but I can't
seem to find anything to use it in FreeBSD...

Brock
