Hi again Sorry to be bothering you so much since the information probably lies out there somewhere, but when I come to alsa-project.org and simular, I just get lost in all the tech-talk. (Quite annoying for someone with a phd to feel that lost... ) Anyway': Since the staudio c-port's midi in wont work (unless the patch on http://www.linuxhq.com/kernel/file/sound/pci/ice1712.c makes it work, but I couldn't find anything there to tell me how to a)check if I allready had tha patch, b)what it does, or c) how to apply it - being an old wintel gui slave is not satisfacotry...) I decided to activate the soundcard on my Asus P4T-E card. the soundcard is found by my mandrake 9.2 installation, but the midi port doesn't come up when I type 'aconnet -io'. Could aome kind soul be so kind as to show me how to find out if the midi in works and how to activate it? Your most humble fan! Ketil
