This applies only for output ports -- you can use qjackctl to manage inputs to Rosegarden, should you wish. This situation may change at some point after 1.0, but as of now, the single way to manage MIDI outputs from Rosegarden is using Rosegarden's own device/connection mechanism (set up through the Manage MIDI Devices dialog, and accessed through the right-button menu on the track labels). > 2) is Rosegarden using some means other than the ALSA Seq interface > to connect to timidity?

Based on that much information, I can't tell you. It might be worth asking on the rosegarden-user list, with information about the version of Rosegarden, how you have set up the device for your track, etc. Chris
