Hi,

I have the same issue but on a different webcam. I'm using the Bisoncam
NB Pro (Device ID 0402:5602 ALi Corp. Video Camera Controller).

I'm also using Lucid Lynx Release (2.6.32-20-generic).

The webcam light is on when I log on and it stays on no matter what I
do.  I have joined a bug report for my webcam because the driver doesn't
seem to work
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/350382) but this
seems to be a whole new symptom and maybe related to this one.  I have
checked the other bug report, but in their case the webcam light is off
UNTIL they open an application that uses it and then it stays on, while
the issue here is the webcam light is on from the time I log on to
ubuntu until I shut down.

I would love to just unload the driver, just to see if the webcam light
would turn off but am not familiar with what driver to unload.  Any help
in the front would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
