How can I acquire this package? The OpenAL project site doesn't seem to have any Linux links....
Open Synaptics (it's within the "System" menu") and search for openal. You can then install it with a few clicks if not yet done. If you find it installed but the game does not start, open a terminal and type:
find /usr/lib*/ -name "*openal*"
(the quotes are important!) and post the output here. Maybe it's just a version mismatch that can be fixed with a symlink...
Cheers

Thank you! I'm going to install them. In my earlier searches, I have learned how to symlink to the new openal (libopenal1) when Smokin' Guns looks for libopenal0, but it might be wrong. I'll try that if it doesn't work, and post back if I still have problems.
Edit: shoot, I lost the link about symlinking. I don't really know how to do it. Anyways, the output of doing that thing you told me to do:
/usr/lib/libopenal.so.1
/usr/lib/cli/tao-openal-1.1
/usr/lib/libopenal.so.1.4.272
/usr/lib/pkgconfig/tao-openal.pc
/usr/lib/pkgconfig/tao-openal-1.1.pc
I take it I need to Symlink to libopenal.so.1, but like I said, I don't actually know how to do that.
EDIT 2: Figured it out all by myself! Now it says it can't load the OpenGL subsystem, so i'm going to search Synaptic for that. Here's the error:

EDIT 3: I found LibGL.so.1 in usr/lib. But where should I softlink it? I can't tell from the error where it's looking.
EDIT 4: OK, I ran the program with "+set r_gldriver /usr/lib/libGL.so.1" tacked on the end. It opened, but it is SLOW as all getup. I mean, even the mouse lags on the main screen. Now, my computer is crappy, but it's not THAT bad-- something must have come out wrong. Looking back at the Terminal readout, I see: "GL_S3_s3tc not found", so that might be something. But nothing else seems wrong. Here's the full readout:
