MIDI clock, and it worked. In rosegarden preferences, MIDI/MIDI sync tab,
set MIDI clock to "receive Start/Stop/Continue". In seq24 options, MIDI clock
tab, set the "record in" port of rosegarden (was 130:0 now in my case) to
On(Pos).
Hope this is what you need, good luck...
But when you change the tempo in seq24 does it change the tempo in Rosegarden ?
