lspci leads me to wonder if lspci is triggering a hardware flaw
somewhere on the PCI bus. And Zoom might do the same thing: I
conjecture that it looks for cameras on the PCI and USB busses.
Does it always freeze at the same point in the lspci listing? What
happens if you do a verbose listing? 'lspci -v'
Can you get a complete lspci listing using an older version of Linux,
or a live CD version (e.g. finnix)?
