Sure, it's flawless on the 2.4 kernels.

I tested it with seq24, hooking its output to the virmidi ports from 
within seq24 itself (that's how it works). The virmidi port(s) were 
connected to qsynth and to the hardware synth on the SBLive. I started 
seq24, got no sound. I hooked the output to the MIDI Through port, got 
sound. I also performed the same tests with the same hookups, but using 
a MIDI keyboard to send events to the virmidi ports. Got the same results.

I tested it just now with aseqdump, again with the same results. MIDI 
Through works fine, the virmidi ports report connection but no i/o.

Best,

dp
