Note - Linux users may get an error associated with OpenAL such as 'undefined reference to alutInit'. This is due to changes in OpenAL which cause compatibility issues. To fix this, start X-Plane with the following command: "LD_PRELOAD="/usr/lib/libalut.so" ./X-Plane-arch" where 'arch' is your system architecture, eg 'i586'.
