I thought the Creative Labs AWE64 soundfonts had references to ROM
samples?  I seem to recall that from playing with my sisters' AWE64...
If that's the case I'm guessing that timidity can't deal with ROM sample
references, but the AWE driver probably can.

This all begs the questions though.... why on earth does the original
poster think that soundfont sounds so good?  It's stock Creative Labs
stuff...  My years-old versions of Chaos 12M and Fluid both have some
better instruments than Creative's 8M GM font...
