I've created a package which extracts the firmware for MidiSport devices from the Windows driver files and installs the hotplug script to download the firmware. You can get it at <http://www.informatik.uni-halle.de/~ladischc/midisport_linux_firmware.html There are some differences to Lars Doelle's GPL firmware: - it supports MidiSport 4x4/8x8/Keystation/Oxygen - no configuration file editing, just 'make install' - it requires ALSA because the Midiman firmware doesn't conform to the USB MIDI specification I don't have a MidiSport device, so this is completely untested.
