Hello, I don't believe this is related to lincity-ng because the game has not been updated for quite some time, but rather to a change in the kernel or your nouveau drivers. I can confirm that lincity-ng works with the free radeon drivers on my system. What happens if you try to play other games such as megaglest, foobillardplus or cube2-data? What happens if you use the proprietary Nvidia drivers? What happens if you install the experimental version of LinCity-NG, 2.9~beta-2 ? There are a lot of search hits for "failed to idle channel 0xcccc0000 " that indicate that this might be a driver issue. Regards, Markus
