I guess what I'm really trying to accomplish is to sort of become the Isao Tomita or Wendy Carlos of my own linux box, just for my own amusement. I've used an older v. of timidity when I've booted into Libranet (OSS, not ALSA), and I used the timidity that came with Rehmudi 1.1.0, but for some reason the timidity on my Demudi 1.0 is broken -- can't find midia.cfg, which is supposed to be in the pkg but isn't there (I checked, too, using midnight commander) Anyway, that's not really the point. Once I can get it up & running to play the midi files generated from rosegarden, I'd like to figure out how to create my own *.pat files, or mess around with the ones included. Any help for a chronic newbie? Thanks, Mark Oh, and don't bother suggesting I download the new version of Demudi -- I don't have the bandwidth, so I'll have to wait 'til it shows up on Cheapbytes! ;-) ===== -- Seek professional help!
