G'day! My brand new installation of Mandrake 7.1 left my soundcard unable to play midi files. The same thing occured in 7.0 , but everything had gone back to normal (*) by modifying /dev/sequencer (symlink) to point to /dev/midi0 instead of /dev/music. I tried to do the same operation (and even tried to link to /dev/midi1,2....), but with no results. Any ideas? _____________________________________________ (*) if normal, for an excellent sound card, means just 8-bit :-( TIA, Gabriel --------------------------------------------------- Get free personalized email at http://www.iname.com
