Title: No sound? Here is the fix/workaround
Post by: stateq2 on November 16, 2009, 10:31:16 pm

First of all, I'm running Ubuntu 9.10.  I tried editing the pssetup.cfg, and switching to the software sound renderer, which didn't work.  I soon found that the openal library that came with planeshift was either outdated, or linked to the wrong version.  I don't know if this is a bug of some sort, but the following fixes any issue of not having sound in planeshift:

first, back up the original libopenal that came with planeshift:

Code: [Select]

mv /opt/PlaneShift/libs/libopenal.so.0 /opt/PlaneShift/libs/libopenal.so.0.bak
now link to the correct libopenal

Code: [Select]

ln -s /usr/lib/libopenal.so.1 /opt/PlaneShift/libs/libopenal.so.0
now sound should work :)
