[Openal] OpenAL Link problem

[Louis Desjardins]

Hi 
everyone,http://by115fd.bay115.hotmail.msn.com/cgi-bin/compose?type=ra&msg=6E5C72B3-2F96-40AC-A17B-E7EAC6E883EE&start=0&len=4079&curmbox=00000000%2d0000%2d0000%2d0000%2d000000000001&a=df220411feea7d838a54ccc697bfa7dd6f5ccbf05686b68578caa4871fe32b99#

Just to let you know I solved the problem.. I had to copy the openal and 
alut library files from /usr/local/lib to my /usr/lib/

don't know why it didnt' work originally .. but the helloworld example works 
now

no idea really why it didnt work in /usr/local/lib though

I got the hint from: 
http://mail.flightgear.org/pipermail/flightgear-users/2004-November/009570.html

Thanks,

LD
