That's pretty much what did it for me. In addition to the ALSA docs Clemens 
pointed to, the highlights of the mini how-to will include :

* Get the latest versions of hotplug and fxload

* Let alsa (via modules.conf) load the drivers; all hotplug really MUST do is 
find and run the /etc/hotplug/usb/ezusbmidi script -- that loads the firmware 
into midisport's onboard memory. Until then, it's just a paperweight. It's 
volatile, so that has to happen every time the unit is powered up. 

* Turn on debug for the hotplug scripts -- this is distro dependent, and may 
be as painful as kernel recompile or as easy as uncommenting 

#DEBUG=yes export DEBUG

in a couple of scripts. Then look at /var/log/messages for clues.

* When the bank of led's fire and the single led slowly strobes, your there!


Now -- that's what it took to turn the thing on -- I haven't yet tested the 
functionality.

Good Luck,

Matt
