From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Yeah mine's doing that too, and my dmesg is flooded with USB disconnect and reconnects.
The thing probably is overheating and shutting off. I believe I've seen videos of them catching fire too, not sure if it's that one or another webcam that looks similar.
Mine's on a USB hub with buttons for each port so I just leave its port off until I need the camera and only turn it on when needed.
