My available time fluctuates, and I've been busy, sick, etc, etc. Anyway, previosuly, the MIDI that was removed did not with any cards (that I know of) other than CSA. So I don't think there is any point in being frustrated with its removal. Also, I've posted a few times to the list a replacement that you can test if you have either a soundblaster live or a es137x. Present problems including broken sound recording and no-AMD64. I plan to have a cross-compilable version available this weekend. --Mat --
