Can you email a copy of your config file: .config/yoshimi/yoshimi.config Also, a copy of any instrument file. However, the fact that you can't load instruments either suggests something has gone very wrong with MXML (the program that decodes the files). Also can you let me know what your machine details are. If the worst comes to the worst, one of us may be able to compile a compatible version for you as an interim measure.
