I read through redwings posts and saw that he had luck with the new ubuntu 9.10. Since I was running 9.04 I decided to upgrade to 9.10 with a fresh install.
However, even with the new install it is the same thing, I did the installed libopenal1 and I also created the symlink. So I think you are right and I need the driver.
- what graphics card do you own?
In the booklet that came with my computer says
graphics: Mobile Intel GL40 Express Chipset
To my knowledge I have not added any drivers for graphics card.
This is the printout from the code you supplied me:

I've just read your other thread (it's confusing if you start 2 threads in parallel) and want to notice sth: the command provided above is for the "normal" SG version of course! Alternatively, you can try what dowoshek suggested and create a symlink:
Code:
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 /usr/lib/libGL.so
That has the same effect as the command above, but you don't need to always append "+set r_gldriver /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 " ...

Well, r_glDriver is an archive cvar so you only need to set it one time, but I just discovered r_glDriver won't be supported in next released based on ioQuake3 engine.
So it's better to not use this cvar...

Ahh, I didn't knew that... I guess the symlink is the way to go then!
BTW : I think this should be in a FAQ or sth. like that...
Hi, I wasnt informed of your responses either. What is strange is that creating the symlink has not worked.
I got it to work using that smokinguns.i386 file I downloaded.
-there are audio problems but they seem to autocorrect if i let it sit at the title screen for a few minutes.
I just tried the that cvar line you supplied and that also worked, and now clicking the .x86 file also works. I'm not totally sure what did it but I value all of your help through all this.
I am happy I can play SG now and will see you all in the bank heists.
I get the same error that has been discussed before - ./smokinguns.x86: error while loading shared libraries: libopenal.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
But if I use the command
Code:
sudo urpmi install libopenal1 -a
I get this error report: "No package named libopenal1"

How and where can I get this package?
Probably the package name is a bit different in your linux (what is your system?). _________________ HarmoniusZ
Well, I would, if I hadn't screwed up KDE, Gnome and the Software-Repository - now I am condemned to use Xfce...

Did you try "libopenal" or "openal"?
The good news are that I tried "openal" now and it got installed , but the bad news are that I keep getting the same error... ( error while loading shared libraries: libopenal.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)
