You're not gonna like this (or maybe you will), but... The MIDI drivers were recently yanked from the source tree in -current. New drivers/modules are supposed to on the way Real Soon Now. This may or may not be a good thing for you. From what I understand, there were some real problems with the existing MIDI support (I know my own attempts to use it failed miserably). Mat (one "t") :-), our new sound/MIDI maintainer has been very busily working behind the scenes on a whole new framework for MIDI. Keep your eyes peeled; it shouldn't be much longer. You may want to subscribe to -current and/or cvs-src in the meantime, to make sure you won't miss anything. -- Conrad Sabatier - "In Unix veritas"
