Hi Cedric,
2010/1/20 Cedric Roux <sed(a)free.fr>fr>:
You generally
won't need one anyways.. You probably just need to load
the kernel module snd-seq
and make sure that it is loaded at startup.
What do you mean? I want my program to play some audio,
so I need a synthesizer. I wondered if my card had one.
It seems that no.
These days very few people use the synthesizer of the soundcard. There
are virtually no modern soundcards usable in Linux which have an
internal synthesizer. (mostly I think the same is valid for other
OSes)
These days most people use a software based synthesizer, e.g.
Fluidsynth or Timidity for basic playback. If you want a pro solution
they may be too limited.
I suppose you want to playback sound from a sequencer or midi player.
Just startup the software synthesizer make sure it is routed to the
soundcard, connect it to the player and you should get sound.

Thanks for answers!
Cédric.
