OpenAL sound error when trying to start Penumbra

[cortez]

Hi there!
I'm trying to start Penumbra Overture, but it won't start. I don't have any idea of what to do. I have installed 313.09 Nvidia driver, i have gtx 460. Ubuntu 12.10 64bits with lxde (Lubuntu). Any idea will be helpful.
Here is hpl.log

Try and remove the openal lib from the lib folder in the installation directory. This should make the game use the system installed openal instead which might work better.

Thanks for your suggestion
before removing openal lib from the lib folder i get this message:

/home/cortez/.frictionalgames/Penumbra Overture/Episode1/hpl.log
for any error messages
Also try running
ulimit -c unlimited
And re-running Penumbra and try and recreate the error
then submit the generated core file or stack trace

removing libopenal.so.0

removing libopenal.so.0.0.0 i get the same error...

First off make sure you have openal installed, I thought it was installed by default, but could be it isn't.

[plutomaniac]

also you have a gtx 460, please don't play the game at 800x600. Show mercy...

hahahahaha
good point...
if at least i could start the game i would play it in 1680x1050...
I'll take note for setting this after I get through this error

I think I already have openal installed... anyway, reinstalled libopenal-data, libopenal1 and libopenal1:i386

same error as before:
