I was not able to find any sound card driver named Timidity on the Linux
Mandrake or tucows web sites. Where can I download the software you mentioned?
I found an audio file conversion program called Timidity on the tucows site.
But, this isn't what you were referring to is it? Here is the description:
1 TiMidity
Platform: Linux - X11
Version Number: 2.10.2
Revision Date: 02-NOV-00
License: GPL
Byte Size: 1011396

Description: TiMidity is a MIDI-to-WAV converter that
uses Gravis Ultrasound-compatible patch files to generate
digital audio data from General MIDI files.
The audio data can be played through any sound device, or
stored on disk. On a fast machine, music can be played
in real-time.
TiMidity runs under Linux, FreeBSD, HP-UX, SunOS and
Win32, and porting to other systems with gcc should be easy.
