I have an AWE64 and if I install alsa, kmid doesn't play midi. When I
select Options | Configure Midi devices, there is only one option (not
an option at all for me) : External Midi Port.
When I get rid of alsa, I see these options:
Sound Blaster 16 - External Midi Port
AWE Midi Emu - External Midi Port
AWE32-0.4.3 (RAM512k)
I choose the third option and it works perfectly.
So I am worried about the increasing dependence on alsa - I don't mind
alsa if it works, but despite Guillaume Cottenceau's claim in a previous
reply to my posting that alsa fully supports AWE64, I know that it doesn't.
