I tried this and can't get it to work.

After doing all the steps, the file manager still doesn't display an
audio icon for ogg vorbis files, although "icon-theme.cache" does contain
the string "vorbis" 2 times.

"Details" in "File Manager" will show "audio/x-vorbis" just fine.
Clicking on it will open "Audio Player".
And that will hang for a bit and then unhelpfully say:
"Playback error" (something to that extent)

and that's it.

The page doesn't really mention which exact gstreamer version to use, so I
tried 
http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/src/gst-plugins-bad/gst-plugins-
  bad-0.10.3.tar.gz
and the Tremor version from trunk from 10 minutes ago.

Copied the compiled files to the Nokia 770, called ldconfig just in case
(although that's not mentioned) and no go...

Guess I'll compile "gst-tools", too, and check up on the plugin.

cheers,
  Danny
