Hi folks,
 
FedoraCore3
KDE desktop
 
I encounter problem in playing midi files, with no problem in playing musicCD.
 
# ls -l /dev/ | grep midi
crw-rw---- 1 root root 14, 30 Jun 13 10:56 admmidi1
crw-rw---- 1 root root 14, 29 Jun 13 10:56 amidi1
crw-rw---- 1 root root 14, 25 Jun 13 10:56 dmmidi1
 
/dev/midi missing
 
# chmod a+rw /dev/dsp /dev/mixer /dev/sequencer /dev/midi
chmod: cannot access `/dev/midi': No such file or directory
 
Kindly advise how to fix it.
 
TIA
 
B.R.

hmm.. i think the /dev/midi interface is a holdover from the days of the OSS
sound driver. perhaps you haven't enabled the oss compatibility part of ALSA?
