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out of date.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.
