Make sure you have a package named "vorbis-tools" installed, among
with
all it depends on (namely libao, libogg and libvorbis, plus a few helper
libraries, like curl and libiconv). I know SuSE has the Vorbis packages
in their dist for quite a while already, so there shouldn't be a problem
finding it. I recommend installing at least 1.0rc3, though. If SuSE 7.3
doesn't come with that version, fetch yourself the RPMs from
www.vorbis.com or compile the tools yourself from the tar.gz packages.
