hello,

i'm hoping someone will be able to help me on this one.

i have an OpenAL application which uses OpenAL for audio capture. it  
works perfectly under windows. i am mid way into porting it when i  
hit this error where alcGetString(NULL, ALC_CAPTURE_DEVICE_SPECIFIER)  
does not return any devices. (forgive the story) if anyone knows how  
to repair this i would greatly appreciate it..... however i thought  
maybe i need to download the latest OpenAL from Creative's website  
however now when i try to link my application i get this error from  
OpenAL "does not match cputype" i am on an Intel Mac however i guess  
the Creative website only has downloads for PowerPC Mac and never  
told me or documented it. has anyone had this issue and possibly know  
how to repair the issue?

thank you
