Both port 0 and port 1 are for both input and output, so having 2 ports
is OK.

When using the ALSA sequencer, the ports are 80:0 and 80:1 (assuming
the client number is 80).
When using OSS emulation, the rawmidi devices for these ports should
be /dev/midi03 and /dev/amidi03 (or another number than 03).

The firmware of the Windows driver isn't compliant with the USB MIDI
specification, so we have to use the firmware by Lars Dölle. I've heard
rumors that there is a newer version of the firmware, but Lards doesn't
have a homepage AFAIK. Try asking him.

It would be helpful if you could determine the byte sequence which
causes a crash. (Or look at the source code and fix it yourself. ;-)
