The via82xx doesn't have a hardware synthesizer. It may have an MIDI port for external devices (must be enabled in the BIOS setup, and see the mpu_port module option). > However I don't know what or how to connect to this virmidi thing. The virmidi driver is used to connect other MIDI devices/drivers together. Without such a MIDI device, its usefulness is rather limited. > I guess I still need to aconnect it to some software Try a software synthesizer like Timidity or iiwusynth.
