I had to run alsaconf, and then I had audio with all the exact same problems I'd had with 2.6.12. I haven't had hardware MIDI working since 2.4 or maybe even 2.2, and I haven't tested recording recently, but playing works fine. If you need to compare your setup to mine, feel free to ask. -- Laura (mailto:lconrad@xxxxxxxxxxxx , http://www.laymusic.org/ ) (617) 661-8097 fax: (501) 641-5011 233 Broadway, Cambridge, MA 02139
