My Microsoft Lifecam VX-800 stopped working without any plausible reason. lsusb identifies the camera with the name Z-Star Microelectronics Corp. Venus USB2.0 Camera. Another unusual thing is that the camera's green light is always turned on (this didn't happen when it was still working).I didn't install any new software, update anything, or change any OS configurations. What could have broken things?
