Package: steam Version: 1.0.0.49-1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation? When I run Universe Sandbox ² in steam, my system other than the mouser cursor froze. I had to CTRL-ALT-DELETE to rebbot * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? I noted the following message on my screen when it went black: "nouveau E[Xorg[953]] failed to idle channel 0xcccc0000 [Xorg[953]]". * What was the outcome of this action? My system rebooted, but when I run Universe Sanbox again in steam, the same thing happens again randomly. * What outcome did you expect instead? I was hoping this was a one-off, but after six random occurences, it clearly is not.
