No Sound, Source Compile, Ubuntu 8.10

[EdSquareCat]

I'm running Ubuntu 8.10.  I installed the binary of PlaneShift x86 and it worked great, except for the fact that it crashed every couple minutes. I was told to install from source, so I did. I used this: http://planeshift.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/planeshift/trunk/docs/compiling.html#Linux-Ubuntu.GCC.User.Normal guide to install.  Now it runs fine, but there is no sound, and some textures don't exist.  I've tried the OpenAL -> Software fix to no avail.  The in-game Master Sound slider defaults to 0 when I start the game; changing that has no effect.   Ahhh, now I suddenly can't run the game.    I get this error: 

Code: [Select]

./psclient: error while loading shared libraries: libcal3d.so.12: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

make sure you do all the exports and export LD_LIBRARY as well

I've simply reinstalled it and I can start it again, but there is still no sound.  I get hundreds of errors similar to this on the console:

for the .ogg/sound issue try http://www.hydlaaplaza.com/smf/index.php?topic=34258.0 it might help, for the other issue i have no idea other then to run the updater.

[EdSquareCat]

I've tried that fix. When applied, I can't even run the client.  When the launcher asks me to update, clicking "Yes" or "No" causes it to hang.

try installing openal, if you are installed export the path of crystal, this code are in the compiling manual.

Hmm I suddenly get that error again, and I cannot start the game

Code: [Select]

./psclient: error while loading shared libraries: libcal3d.so.12: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Seems it happens when I restart my computer?

make sure you do all the exports and export LD_LIBRARY as well

you  MUST DO this each and EVERY time you close your console/terminal.

Ha I just figured that out after I posted . Any way to make this permanent?

Any way to make this permanent?

not recommended due to the fact that your build can change and that path may change. make a txt file with the lines in it, then before you launch psclient type "source <filename>" and you are done.
