And thats a problem. I have managed to install ALSA on my laptop and on my wife's machine but have not yet installed it on my own machine, mainly because I was never able to get ALSA midi support working. The documentation is woefully out of date. I do remember seeing another installation howto from someone in New Zealand but I couldn't find that information when I needed it. Finally, I dont think that ALSA supports USB midi devices and therefore these devices would be outside the ALSA midi framework.
