Public bug reported:

If you have a MS HD Webcam (cinema/studio) connected during boot, the
startup time considerably slows down and halts in a low-graphics mode
error with a complete system freeze.

This error occurs *after* a properitary graphic driver was installed
(tested with AMD and Nvidia).

With a disconnected webcam the system boots without a problem.

This bug *does not occure on* non-debian based distributions like arch-
linux.

Workaround:  Quickly open a console during boot and restart lightdm.
