I am using Mandrake 7.2 and have a SoundBlaster audio PCI64V, which
Mandrake's hardware detection picks up as a Ensonic ES1370 (AudioPCI).
As far as I can tell from the documentation should support midi.
Nevertheless, I get the following error report when I try to run
playmidi

open /dev/sequencer: No such device
When I do ls -la /dev/sequencer I get
crw-rw-rw- 1 turtle audio 14, 1 Sep 27 2000 /dev/sequencer
so I would appear that /dev/sequencer is an existing device.
Does anybody know how to solve this problem.
Thanks in advance
Peter
