|
|
Hello, all.
I've been trying to get midi playback working on my new A8N-SLI nforce4 motherboard. Other sound files play beautifilly. Midi playback is working fine in Windows XP 64.
I've installed timidity++ and xmms-midi via portage, but I still get no playback. What do I need to do to fix this?
Thanks for your help.

I fixed it! Here's what I did:
I followed your advice and (taking out the "p") emerged the updated programs with the new use flags. Then I read "TFM" located at http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/alsa-guide.xml and followed the directions there to install a sound font and add timidity to the default runlevel.
Voila!
Cheers.
