Hi,

uhm, OK. MAybe I should close the bugtracker to get personal mails :) .

Try:

Press Alt - F2
konsole
cd ./Desktop
cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@xxxxxxxxxx:/cvsroot/sysexxer co sysexxer
cd sysexxer
make -f Makefile.cvs
./configure
make
./sysexxer

I'd be interested if both modules exist on Mandriva; if so it's likely 
that both get loaded as soon the Midisport gets plugged in and both 
modules will fight for the device. Normal events will work then, but 
sysex is problematic.

BTW: I'm also using a Midisport (the 8x8) and sysexxer works well with 
all of my 8 completely different devices.

Not necessary. Memory will be increased dynamically AFAIK.

If nothing works use amidi. It's a command line tool to exchange sysex.

OK, thanks for the feedback.
