Good suggestion! Sadly, I can't get pmidi to run on my system.
- If I compile, it complains that /sys/asoundlib.h isn't there. From what I've seen, this header has been deprecated, and isn't supposed to be used anymore. I'm using pmidi 1.5.4, which is supposed to work with alsa 0.9. I've played with the headers a bit but I haven't been able to get it to compile. - If I install the RPM, it complains that libasound.so.2 can't be found. Forcing the RPM to install doesn't help: it complains at runtime. Any ideas? I would dearly love to get external MIDI working for this soundcard. Any and all suggestions or diagnostics would be appreciated! > -----Original Message----- > From: Wolfgang Hamann [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Friday, October 04, 2002 4:24 AM > To: Thomas Vaughan > Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [Alsa-user] External MIDI with SB Live Value > > > > > Audio out on the card is fine, and timidity is > able to play.
