Hello all-

Yet another installment of my external MIDI
saga.  As yet I've been unable to receive any
external MIDI events through my card's joystick
port (which I now believe is the MPU401).

So I'm recompiling everything.

One thing I've noticed: the emu10k1 drivers seem
to have their own mpu401 code.  So loading a
separate mpu401 driver seems redundant.  Is that
correct?  I shouldn't load a separate mpu401
driver?

Here are my configure switches:
  --with-sequencer=yes
  --with-oss=yes
  --with-debug=full
  --with-kernel=/usr/src/linux-2.4
  --with-cards=emu10k1,mpu401

I've compiled with full debug support.  Where do
debug messages go?  I don't see any on the console,
or in /var/log/messages.

When I modprobe snd-emu10k1, this is
the lsmod output:
Module                  Size  Used by    Not tainted
snd-emu10k1            75492   0  (unused)
snd-pcm                88000   0  [snd-emu10k1]
snd-timer              15872   0  [snd-pcm]
snd-rawmidi            18912   0  [snd-emu10k1]
snd-ac97-codec         31472   0  [snd-emu10k1]
snd-hwdep               5952   0  [snd-emu10k1]
snd-seq-device          5964   0  [snd-emu10k1 snd-rawmidi]
snd-util-mem            3504   0  [snd-emu10k1]
snd                    47432   0  [snd-emu10k1 snd-pcm snd-timer
snd-rawmidi snd-ac97-codec snd-hwdep snd-seq-device snd-util-mem]
soundcore               6692   2  [snd]

On the whole I think that looks pretty healthy.

Why aren't there any entries for snd-seq-midi
or the like?  Do I need those?

xmms and timidity both work fine.

However, MIDI (on the card or external) doesn't
seem to be working.  playmidi fails with
"No playback device found."

If I listen for MIDI events on
/proc/asound/dev/midiC0D0, I don't hear any.

KDE reports that there are no MIDI devices
in the system.

Any ideas?

Thanks-

    -Thomas
