Computer freeze caused by the media drivers?

Hi,

I have the latest v4l driver. When I use VLC to open my webcam stream,
it causes the computer to freeze. If I use my August vgb100 or any
other of my USB recording device and disconnect them, the computer
will freeze.

When I say freeze, I mean there is no error message, no keyboard LEDs
flashing, I can move my cursor on the screen, but when I click, it
doesn't do anything. The computer doesn't respond to keyboard keys
(e.g.: CTRL+ALT+F1). I can still head the audio from my Youtube video
at the back that keeps playing. The only thing to do is hard-restart
the computer.

I don't know if it's the media module that causes a freeze. How do I
find the cause? We should fix it. I feel like it's a kernel freeze
caused by this module, but I may not be right.

Thanks,
Alexandre-Xavier
