In the meantime have updated to kernel 2.6.11 and found the alsa - udev incompatibility, so removed udev. My hardware has been also updated, to Pentium 233MMX. Is there any kind of diagnostic to tell if the MIDI data is actually being received by the sound card? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- tiwai - 04-12-05 16:38 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- What do you mean exactly "can't play MIDI"? Did you get any error messages?
