What I did is documented in a small HOWTO that is part of the Planet
CCRMA pages (http://www-ccrma.stanford.edu/planetccrma/software/).
What's there works for the GPL firmware but the same setup was used to
test the Oxygen8

It does not look like you have the snd-usb-audio module loaded, of if it
is, then the firmware download must have failed. I don't have the
keyboard with me right now to be able to test. 

I'm looking at your previous email and it does not look like the
firmware download was successfull (in /var/log/messages). There should
be a reconnect from the device after the download where the keyboard
comes back online as a different usb device (this time with midi
capabilities) but I don't see that in the logs you sent.
