There is now a 2.6.12-3-multimedia-* kernel available from Agnula, the problems you describe may have been fixed (I don't know). This may also be due to changes in the ALSA modules (since >= 1.0.6) where MIDI support has been separated out from the individual card drivers. try modprobing snd-mpu401 with appropriate parameters. If this turns out to be a bug in the kernel implementation, it would be useful to report this on the AGNULA user list <users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>. cheers, tim hall http://glastonburymusic.org.uk
