Audio Driver in Linux Mint

Post by Tecknomage »

OK, just installed Exchalon Book 2 on my Linux Mint 10 laptop.

Runs fine EXCEPT no sound :(

Selecting any of the FreeAudio drivers does NOT work. Note that local CFG file says FreeAudio for the driver.

Please, I see all the posts on Pulseaudio "wrappers" (whatever that is).

For us Linux dummies, please provide EXACT steps to get an Audio Driver to work with Exchalon Book 2 with Linux Mint 10.

Note, all other sounds on my system are OK.

OK, figured out how to get sound in Linux Mint 10

Loaded the DEV package for OpenAL (libopenal-dev).

Now the Audio Driver list includes many additional options including the OpenAL for Pulseaudio, which works.

Now have sound for Eschalon Book II :D
