Hi Anne, > Hi, Trish. I'm no expert at this, but I play midi files with kmidi - > note that with kmid I get nothing at all. Have you tried kmidi?
I've tried KMidi, KMid, playmidi with the -e switch (since otherwise it says no playback device) - and they all lock the system completely. (KMail complains bitterly when it can't clean up properly!) I've also discovered that I'm getting kernel errors: MPU-401 device not found or device busy. So now I'll do some more hardware research, in case this box has a cut-down version of the on-board audio. Everything I've looked at so far says that the AC-97/VIA8235 sound has the MPU401, but... Google, here I come... 8-) -- Trish Fraser, Sunbury, Australia Linux user #283226 counter.li.org andromeda up 1 days and counting kernel 2.4.21-0.13mdk
