Okay, I managed to find out what was wrong with playing midi files on the
GUS PnP.
/sys/i386/isa/sound/soundcard.h
struct patch_info {
short key; /* Use GUS_PATCH here */
#define GUS_PATCH _PATCHKEY(0x04)
#define OBSOLETE_GUS_PATCH _PATCHKEY(0x02)
short device_no; /* Synthesizer number */
short instr_no; /* Midi pgm# */
unsigned long mode;
Make sure that the definition of key is *not* "unsigned short key;" rather
"short key;"
So recompile the kernel, install the kernel, reboot and playing on 8)
If playmidi does not work for you , try this:
cp /sys/i386/isa/sound/soundcard.h /usr/include/machine/.
cp /sys/i386/isa/sound/ultrasound.h /usr/include/machine/.
recompile playmidi and try again.
If playmidi crashes or fails to play wait till tomorrow when I get a
change to release the next version of the sound driver. Is just that
I want to do a bit more testing before I release it.
Oh the bit about mission impossible:
ftp://rah.star-gate.com/pub/missio_1.mid
Now if Bettina can see me playing mission impossible and doing the
dishes 8)
Enjoy,
Amancio
