Hey,

I've brought this up a couple times, and It looked like Takashi was working on 
it. I added alsa 0.5 and 0.9x rawmidi support to a library called Allegro 
(alleg.sf.net) but since upgrading to alsa 9x (I also just installed the 
latest release from alsa-project.org) the midi test app that comes with 
allegro (and a midi player of mine...) will eventually (in a couple minutes) 
eat up 100% cpu time. The allegro midi system has no problems with its 
software synth, in OSS (or so I've heard), Windows, or any of the other 
platforms it supports.

I have:
kernel 2.4.19 (+ preepmt patch)
latest alsa stuff
GCC 3.2.2
Debian Cid

Thanks!

p.s. I have to say, Great work :)

Yes.. Thats becasue I couldn't get the driver to work, so I didn't submit all 
my changes for alsa 0.9. You want me to send you the one driver file? (which 
won't work on its own in the cvs.. I havent worked on the code in a while, 
and even a patch I might generate will probably not apply to cvs. I've made a 
few changes to the configure stuff to automatically detect the alsa version) 
Or anything?

Ok. I'll get that fixed.

final release - Tuesday

[Jaroslav Kysela]

Hi all,

	I have just released the 0.9.0rc8d version of the ALSA driver for
tests. It should fix the trident problems as Paul noticed. If no major bug 
is reported until Tuesday, I will release the final packages.

					Have fun,
						Jaroslav

I cannot find 0.9 code in your CVS tree.

Note: Don't use the APPEND mode for single-byte writting. This mode is 
indended for full MIDI messages (including running state) otherwhise there 
is no guarantee that another application doesn't break the stream with 
other bytes.

Ouch.. I forgot to mention I have a SBLive! Value. I know someone else is now 
working on a similar addition to allegro and doesn't have the problem, but he 
doesn't have an emu10k1 based card...

these errors seem strange.
could you run "make clean" and cvscompile again?
