Check whether the MIDI tab on the Connections window is enabled and
functional. If not, either it was explicitly built with ./configure
--disable-alsa-seq, or the alsa-devel package (probably libalsa-devel in
mdk.rpm) was not installed at build time. Certainly, a serious packaging
flaw for a generalist distro as Mandriva used to be.

Cheers.
