I have no /proc/asound/dev, needed for midi, and according to alsa mailing
list, this is normal behaviour when devfs support is enabled (my case) in
kernel, but not mounted, in alsa 0.5.10. Solution is either to use devfs,
to switch to alsa 0.6 (cvs version), or just to change kernel header when
compiling alsa. I tried the last solution, but
/usr/include/linux/autoconf.h seems not the correct file to look at (all
DEVFS lines are #undef). So, i'm willing to test devfs. Should this break
something in current cooker ?
