Any, or just when you try to get a frame from [#camera] ?
I do get a lot of freezes from [#camera], but that's because of the pwc.ko driver (for the Philips protocol). As far as I can tell, the Linux kernel has been shipping with a bad version of pwc for a while. But it doesn't freeze the OS, it just means I have to unload and reload the driver quite often, and kill Pd (Ctrl+c in the terminal works, but Ctrl+q in the pd-gui doesn't). I should reinstall a non-bundled version of pwc.ko like I used to have (I think I recall it made a difference).
What's your situation ? (camera driver, if that's an issue...)
