Hope someone can help. i am trying to get mandrake 8 box with a creative Vibra128 soundcard to play midi direct to the card. Sound works well generally on this system, and I can use timidity and kmidi sequencers to play mids, but anything that tries to access the midi device direct seems to fail, e.g. kmid gives error "ERROR: Couldn't open /dev/sequencer to get some information " and windows progs under wine give error "unable to open midi device" I have done a MAKEDEV sound to make sure the /dev devices are there. What I really want to achieve is for a prog running under wine to be able to play midis. Is there something else I should be doing? Should I be trying to pipe this through a sequencer (timidity??) somehow?? Has anyone got this combination of MD8, Vibra128 and midi sequencer to work? Any help gratefully received. Bruce
