If this problem is the same as mine, then I'm afraid the answer is
nothing as simple as has been suggested so far. I have the same
problem (midi files don't play either!) with LM 7.2 on my machine.
Everything works fine in Windows, but not in Linux, and, like most
people on this list, I want linux to work better than windows, not
worse!
Since presenting this problem to the list, I have received little
response - so indicating that it is not an easy one!
Any Mandrake people listening? got any ideas?
