Regnum Online [Solved]

[Wolfcastle]

Hello,
I recently installed Regnum Online, a great Argentinian mmorp, in Sabayon and the game works great but there is no sound. Googling for the solution i found out that I have to install libalut or openal but neither of these libraries are in the repository. They might be in portage, I don't know...haven't really learned to use that yet...Does anybody know how I can fix this? any help is appreciated.

First of all 'openal' IS available in the entropy repository under the category 'media-libs' (you can browse the packages online here: http://packages.sabayonlinux.org)

Info on how to setup openal can be found on the gentoo wiki:

Hi,
You're right both freealut and openal are in repositories, sorry for not noticing, I tend to forget that spritz separates installed from not installed packages so when my search gave no results i thought they were not present.
Well then the problem is not the libraries...I'll try to fix this and if I succeed I'll let you know so you can enjoy this great game

Ok, It works now
Had to configure openal as explained in the link you posted. Thank you for you help. For some reason using alsa doesn't work so I have to use SDL. Btw the linux client for Regnum Online can be downloaded at http://www.regnumonline.com.ar/index.php?l=0&sec=6
