Re: Terasology (java game) problem. OpenAl Library

Try running

strace terasology

and look for /usr/lib/libopenal.so. Maybe a specific version is hardcoded. If terasology looks for one, creating a symlink would be a fix. What is in your ~/.asoundrc?

Re: Terasology (java game) problem. OpenAl Library

Maybe you need lib32-openal? Just a shot...
