[ale] Debian Sound issue - Cannot load libvorbisfile file

[Thomas Holmquist]

ok... Ive had this problem before, and it was quite easy to fix

heres how:

login as root
cd /usr/lib
ln -s libvorbis.so.0.2.0 libvorbis.so.0

^^^ that should work

If that dosent, just respond, and i'll email you the libvorbis.so.0 file

(ALE dosent accept atachments that large)
