This was what was actually meant by the expression "when the system starts". By contrast, loading on demand is... well, loading "on demand". These are two ways of starting a program, "on demand", as opposite to "when the system starts". Please, correct me if I'm wrong here.Yet the situation is as I described. That's what I'm actually reporting. Just now I've done a reboot, and here we go again: all modules loaded, /dev/cuse persent, the message telling me "webcam is already running on ugen1.4.0" (my web-camera) -- and NO /dev/video0.

ps auxw |grep webcamd

Are there any webcamd coredumps?
