Dunno if you have to be subscribed to post to maemo-users.

Thanks for that hint. Reading that thread, I finally found the solution:

I simply had to install the mogg package from the repositories and reboot.
After that, the standard audio player plays ogg just fine. I tried mogg
once but didn't reboot...

Anyway, I will never understand why Nokia didn't add Ogg Vorbis support
if it's that easy. After all, it's free. IMHO, producing a device based
on open source software without supporting common open source file formats
is really hard to understand.

Thanks again for your help,
Hans
