I looked a bit closer than before and saw that the openal packages in karmic (and lucid) come from the "openal-soft" (not "openal") package. Lucid has newer ones, so a next step could be to try how blender 2.5 behaves under lucid.
** Package changed: openal (Ubuntu) => openal-soft (Ubuntu) -- blender 2.5 regression - cpu flatlines at 100% on default scene https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/472687 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Debian/Ubuntu Games Team, which is subscribed to openal-soft in ubuntu. Status in “openal-soft” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Binary package hint: xorg Since about revision 24271 of blender 2.5 (self-compiled with scons): reproduce: start blender with default scene (i.e. no ~/.B25.blend file) within seconds one of my two cores flatlines at 100% blender use happens both on this notebook with xorg-edgers and on an extensa 5635Z with stock karmic. was able to reproduce one time out of three with LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1 on the stock karmic system and 2 of 2 on the edgers system. After updating to revision 24285 I can no longer reproduce this bug with the edgers system.
