Hi, I'm using Kubuntu 9.10, tried Kubuntu 10.04, same problem there. Also tried 
opensuse 11.2, also same problem there.
Problem: When I start using my webcam, my wifi disconnects and is unable to 
restart. On the other hand, my webcam only works with wifi disabled.
Those are the components concerned: 
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 148f:2573 Ralink Technology, Corp. RT2501USB Wireless 
Adapter                                                                         
                       
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 04f2:b022 Chicony Electronics Co., Ltd Gateway USB 2.0 
Webcam

Workaround: Disabled uvcvideo by blacklisting it. When I want to use my
webcam, I need a Cable-LAN connection and starting it manually with sudo
modprobe uvcvideo

First I thought, this bug is related to bug #435352, but as this seems
to be solved with an kernel-update, and mine isn't, it seems to be a new
one. In var/log/debug and messages there is no suspicious entry about
that. This bug affects all applications that use my webcam (Kopete,
Skype, luvcview, etc.)

Here's the difference when using luvcview:

WIFI disabled:

 luvcview 0.2.4

SDL information:
  Video driver: x11
  A window manager is available
Device information:
  Device path:  /dev/video0
Stream settings:
  Frame format: YUYV (MJPG is not supported by device)
  Frame size:   640x480
  Frame rate:   30 fps

Quit signal received.
Cleanup done. Exiting ...

WIFI enabled:

luvcview 0.2.4                                                                  
                                                                                
                    
                                                                                
                                                                                
                    
SDL information:
  Video driver: x11
  A window manager is available
Device information:
  Device path:  /dev/video0
