    Post UVC Webcam with Knoppix 7.0.2

    After installing Knoppix 7.0.2 (I had tried 7.0.1 for a day before switching to 7.0.2), I found that both detect my wireless LAN chip-set automatically (previous versions of Knoppix required loading the driver separately as a kernel module). However, they both (i.e. 7.0.1 and 7.0.2 ) also do something that the previous versions did not. Earlier versions could work with my netbook's webcam properly........these latest two versions do not. I have an Asus EEE PC 1201T. The lspci -v output and the lsusb output are attached as 1.txt and 2.txt respectively.

    I tried using both eviacam as well as guvcview to test the webcam.
    IN each case(for both versions,i.e. total 4 cases), the webcam light glows up properly after launching any of the two applications. HOwever, the entire system freezes at that instant. No change in the UI, no change in the webcam indicator LED,no LED response to Caps Lock toggling, no response to keypresses / touchpad movements or taps........no response to Ctrl+Alt+Del or for that matter Ctrl+Alt+F1/F2/F3/F4,etc....it just freezes there. I have to power off the netbook forcibly and boot into Knoppix again. No way to recover from the crash.

    Why this problem started appearing? Previous versions of Knoppix used to work fine with this webcam.
