hey, i'm running redhat5.2 on my machine and i used sndconfig to
configure my soundblaster16 card. everything that i've tested so far
works fine (it plays sound samples and records sound samples), with the
exception of playing midi. i've tried calling playmidi with this
command:
playmidi filename.mid
maybe there are other options that i need in this command, but as far as
i could discern from reading the playmidi man page, this should play my
file (but i've been wrong before).
if i'm not wrong, and this command should play my midi file, what
possible problems could be causing this? the card actually uses 2 DMA
settings under win95 and i just used the first of those when i set up
sound in linux, could this have anything to do with it?
hopin somebody can help me out,
qozmo
ps- yeah, i already read the entire sound-howto
