so you did not read up the useflags, did not set them (or vorbis and mpeg123 
would have been installed automatically), and you blame gentoo for doing the 
right thing?

If you don't set the useflags, the packages will not be compiled with the 
support for ogg/mp3. So it is your own fault.

Set the useflags, do an emerge --newuse world and everything will be fine.

For easier useflag-maintanance, install ufed.

Hi, Emilio,

What program are you trying to listen to said *.ogg files with? Was that
program emerged with OGG/Vorbis support? An emerge -pv <package> will
tell you what USE flags are available to the application you're trying
to play the files with, and what support was compiled into it.

HTH,
Holly

It's not enough to just have the libraries, the program that you're using to
play the file must know about the file type.
Eg: for mplayer you need the "vorbis" use flag.

Did you also re-compile your favourite audio player after installing those 
libraries?

Hi everybody.

I think gentoo is driving me crazy.

Since I found out the I can listen .wav file but not .ogg file, to-day I 
installed libvorbis, mpeg123 and vorbis-tools.

But the result is the same . . . I cannot listen .ogg file.

Bye
