The only issue there being that the new MIDI system just doesn't work. It's missing code that is central to it doing more than sitting there and looking pretty, and there needs to be a configuration knob to allow non-PnP on-board sequencers for sbc to work (which I've done). VoxWare really sucked, and newpcm is great for pcm stuff, though :) -- Brian Fundakowski Feldman \ FreeBSD: The Power to Serve! / green@FreeBSD.org `------------------------------' To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
