MIDI questions

[Marc Shapiro]

I am trying to play MIDI files on my Debian box.  I have installed 
playmidi, but can not get it to work.  It gives me the following error:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/daisy$ playmidi FirstNoel.mid
Playmidi 2.4 Copyright (C) 1994-1997 Nathan I. Laredo, AWE32 by Takashi 
IwaiThis is free software with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY.
For details please see the file COPYING.
open /dev/sequencer: No such device

but, when I take a look in /dev, I see:
crw-rw----    1 root     audio     14,   1 Jul 12 23:08 sequencer
I am in the audio group, so it does not seem to be a permissions thing. 
 Is there something else that I am missing?

Also, is there a package that will allow me to convert a MIDI file to 
.wav format so that I can burn it to CD with XCDRoast?
