Fantastic. aconnect -i now lists: client 72: 'Evolution Electronics Ltd. USB MIDI keyboard' 1 'USB MIDI keyboard Port 1'
BUT now my snd-cmipci card doesn't work. My /etc/modules.conf (attached) looks like this at the sound area: # WL76.leFtcOMtGx0:CMI8738/C3DX PCI Audio Device # # --- BEGIN: Generated by ALSACONF, do not edit. --- # --- ALSACONF verion 0.9.0 --- alias char-major-116 snd alias snd-card-0 snd-cmipci alias char-major-14 soundcore alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0 alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss options snd snd_major=116 snd_cards_limit=2 options snd-cmipci snd_index=0 alias snd-card-1 snd-usb-midi options snd-usb-midi snd_index=1 # --- END: Generated by ALSACONF, do not edit. --- NB: I edited the bit inside the ALSACONF area (which I don't think matters?) to include settings for the usb audio device aswell as the snd-cmipci card Mike -----Original Message----- From: Clemens Ladisch [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 22 August 2002 09:22 To: Michael Martin Cc: Alsa Users (E-mail) Subject: Re: [Alsa-user] ALSA USB MIDI Input On Tue, 20 Aug 2002, Michael Martin wrote: > The kernel had this to say > > Aug 20 15:55:36 linux kernel: hub.c: USB new device connect on bus1/2, > assigned device number 3 > Aug 20 15:55:36 linux kernel: snd-usb-midi: using interface 1 > Aug 20 15:55:36 linux kernel: snd-usb-midi: MIDIStreaming version 01.00 > Aug 20 15:55:36 linux kernel: snd-usb-midi: detected 1 input jack(s) on > endpoint 1 > Aug 20 15:55:36 linux kernel: snd-usb-midi: detected 1 output jack(s) on > endpoint 2 > Aug 20 15:55:36 linux kernel: snd-usb-midi: detected Evolution Electronics > Ltd.

I want > hotplugging. The hotplugging code works, but for some reason, the driver isn't able to create the sound card object. I'd guess that the snd_cards_limit parameter is set to 1, so that ALSA refuses to use more than one sound card. (Maybe the SuSE installation sets this to 1 because it doesn't know about USB MIDI.) The following lines for /etc/modules.conf should work for your configuration: alias char-major-116 snd options snd snd_cards_limit=2 alias snd-card-0 snd-cmipci options snd-cmipci snd_index=0 alias snd-card-1 snd-usb-midi options snd-usb-midi snd_index=1 # (entries for OSS omitted, see my other mail) HTH Clemens ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: OSDN - Tired of that same old cell phone?
