   Hi,

   in the porting of cheese3 we're facing the problem of how to detect 
cameras. When pluggin the usb device devd passes the usb device (and so 
we can see the usb device as a parameter of webcam) but we can't know 
whiich /dev/video got finally created.

   Is it possible to know which /dev/videoX entry was created from each 
webcamd instance?

   Greets,

   Gustau
