No, I want to play a MIDI-file with my motherboard's internal
soundcard:

0000:00:1f.5 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corp. 82801DB/DBL/DBM
(ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 02)

Can I use a soundfont without a special soundcard?

I can play .mid-files with timidity and pmidi.

Til
