Q: When using the CD Version of "Flight of the Amazon Queen" (which
   includes speech output in MP3 format) I get the following warning:
   "Using MP3 compressed datafile, but MP3 support not compiled in!"
A: scummvm on SUSE is compiled without MAD (MP3) support. This is
   intentional and we can't change this. It should be possible to
   convert the FOTAQ data into ogg/flac instead of mp3 format
   with "compress_queen" (shipped since SUSE 10.0). But this does
   *not* work with the FOTAQ version you can can currently download
   from the scummvm website.
  
     # /usr/games/compress_queen --ogg queen.1c  
     Unknown/unsupported FOTAQ version!
 
   SUSE reported this problem to the scummvm developer team. They
   told us that this tool only supports official versions (not yet
   converted data) of FOTAQ. Unfortunately the scummvm project
   suffers from restricted project file space and therefore cannot
   provide an ogg version of FOTAQ. We're working on a solution for
   the future. For now you need to download an official CD version
   of FOTAQ (not converted yet data) - FOTAQ has been freewared -
   and convert it to ogg format with "compress_queen" yourself. Start
   your favorite search engine and use 

     "Flight of the Amazon Queen" download

   as search string. The file size should be about 90 MB (zipped; 
   unzipped size about 180 MB). Otherwise (many sites offer the
   35 MB zipped MP3 version) you'll likely download an already MP3 
   converted version again, with which you'll run into the same 
   problem again.

   UPDATE: Meanwhile you can find a link to the large - unmodified
   original version and an ogg compressed version on the official
   scummvwm download site.
