1) I didn't do any configuration of ALSA. Is that needed? If so how do I
do it now that ALSA is compiled in?
If Alsa is running, then lsmod will show you the sound modules you are
running from /etc/modules.conf. lspci should show you what hardware the
system is seeing.
2) Where can I expect my devices to show up? For now I have an onboard
soundcard (i810) and the Evolution keyboard. I would like to route the
incomming midi to csound, but later also to either Muse or Rosegarden4.
Is that a matter of having the softsynth or sequencer read from
/dev/midi00 (or somthing like that)? And do I simply tell the sound
generating software to direct its output to the appropriate device, say
/dev/audio?
Possibly under /proc/asound, but this is a 2.4.X model. I've not used 2.6
yet.
3) I noticed somethiing jack showing up. Is jack supported? If so, to
what extend?
man jackd I think.
4) What would be a nice program use for figuring out what midi-events
the knobs on the Evolution sends?
Don't know. I hope we get an answer! Certainly Rosegarden should be able to
record and show you MIDI events if MIDI is working.
