You can put the 'insmod ovcamchip' command in your /etc/rc.d/rc.local 
file and it will be loaded upon machine booting. This file and the 
commands are pretty much the last steps before user interactions.

for the modules.config file. I think you have to declare an alias, then 
add the ovcamchip module to it. Some other lister might know what to add 
to the modules.conf file for the webcam.
