Ok, good. We got that out of the way - I wanted to make sure after you
replied with two other possibilities of the system freezing.

That's windoze as host and linux as a guest, correct?

If so, that's virtualbox's problem, I'd say.

And you're assuming that because the freeze happens when using your usb
webcam, correct? And not otherwise?

Maybe you can describe in more detail what exactly you're doing so that
people could try to reproduce your issue.

Yes, good idea. Maybe the folks there have some more ideas how to debug
this.

I'm leaving in the rest for reference.

What should be pointed out, though, is that you don't have any more
random corruptions causing oopses now that virtualbox is gone. The
freeze below is a whole another issue.

Thanks.
