Are there any tools to test the Alsa-Midi compatiblity ? You can send raw MIDI data with amidi, or play entire .mid files with aplaymidi. To see received data, use amidi or aseqdump. > 2.

Where can I read how the source code is organized in the repository The alsa-kernel tree contains an almost exact copy of the sound/ directory in the Linux kernel tree. The alsa-driver tree contains the build mechanism for the separate alsa-driver package, patches and compatibility code to make the code in alsa-kernel work with older kernels, and some drivers that are too new or too horrible to allow them into the kernel. > and how to manage tags and branches for the development ? https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/wiki/wikka.php?wakka=SourceCodeRepository and see the Hg docs.
