is there something else that i need to do for setup of openal?  other then a crash on exit that is discussed in another thread the various tests have been working great.

any of the openal tests that i try throw a java.lang.NullPointerException

this is on a suse 10, updated to current distribution available via YOU (suse's online updater).  which means that if it is using the systems openal... which i thought it was not, since there is a libopenal.so in native/ ... anywho, this is what you find installed according to rpm:

rpm -q openal
openal-20050801-2

thats just because it can't locate the resource files to play - extract those and add dir to classpath
