It seems that in testing/unstable the timidity-patches are missing, perhaps there was some licencing issue. I installed timidity a long time ago -- probably on Ham. At that time the patches that came with timidity weren't very good so I installed the "eawpats" myself. They are available here http://www.stardate.bc.ca/eawpatches/eawpats12_full.rar You will need to "unrar" them (apt-get install unrar) I placed them in /usr/share/timidity/eawpats/ my timidity.cfg file looks as follows # start dir /usr/share/timidity/eawpats/ source gravis.cfg source gsdrums.cfg source gssfx.cfg source xgmap2.cfg # end That should get you running :) R.J.P. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
