Ubuntu 8.10 Sound Problems.

Okay, so after I went to all the trouble to make Torque compile with GCC 4.3 I discover that it still fails to initialize the OpenAL components. I am not sure what that means, or if it is as simple as my engine not knowing where to look for the libs, but I recall I had the same problem on 8.04, and that it mysteriously fixed itself. At least that is the way I remember it.
Does any one have a more detailed explanation of how to fix this problem? So far all I get is "It sounds like you have the wrong drivers." Which is probably the case, but does any one know what the RIGHT Driver is? That would really be helpful.
Sorry if I seem a little edgy, but I have been hammering on this problem for about 2 or 3 days. I would really like a fully functional Torque engine so that I can start developing my games...
By the by it is TGE 1.5.2
