[linux-audio-user] modprobe: Can't locate module snd-virmidi

[paul wisehart]

Hi,


I'm usning the latest alsa drivers (0.9.6), and
I'm trying to get understand this snd-virmidi stuff:

http://linux-sound.org/quick-toots/4-sequencers_and_softsynths/quick-toot-midisynth_howto.html

When I try:
modprobe snd-virmidi

I get:
modprobe: Can't locate module snd-virmidi

I have searched my /lib/modules/<kernel-version>/kernel/sound/* for it.
Its not there.

Is there a switch I have to put in when I "./configure" my alsa-driver ?
(to get the "snd-virmidi" module)

I *do* have the "snd-seq-virmidi" loaded.
Whats the relation between "snd-virmidi" and "snd-seq-virmidi" ? 

I've done searches and LAD & LAU for "snd-virmidi", but nothing 
comes up about it "missing".

##

Any pointers would be appreciated.
If my post is lacking pertinent details, I can elaborate.

thanks,
