[LAU] BCF2000, qjackctl and ardour

[Kevin Cosgrove]

Hiya,

A few years back I was using my BCF2000 with ardour.  After upgrades 
to my computer hardware and Linux distribution the combination no 
longer works.

The BCF shows up in /proc/asound fine.  I can send and receive data
with the BCF using amidi.

The test of tracing communication between the BCF and ardour fails.
I think this is because the mcu (port?) of ardour isn't connected to 
the BCF.  But, qjackctl won't let me connect those.  They don't
show up in the MIDI tab of qjackctl.  They only show up in the ALSA
tab of qjackctl.  A long time ago there was an issue with my 
distribution where qjackctl wasn't linked against libasound.  But, 
that's not the problem this time around.

I know people would need more info from me to help me troubleshoot
this.  But, I'd rather not spew 5-6 pages of stuff to the list.
What would be useful here?

Thanks....
