When I type 'lsusb -v' in a terminal, the OS crashes. It shows several lines but it hangs forever in this device:
Bus 001 Device 003
ID 0bda:5801 Realtek Semiconductor Corp
lsusb -v works fine when entering into recovery mode, but I am unable to read the details.
I don't know if the problem is related to the integrated webcam in my system (it stopped working, so I was trying to list it to get it details).

I was unable to recreate this on 2 different systems - one running Natty and one running Maverick. I'd guess this is hardware specific.
