to get jackd to see your alsa midi devices, you
have to do some extra

Midi driver is the the trunk already :)
http://subversion.jackaudio.org/jack/trunk
so just to make sure I understand you correctly, to get jack midi
working on my box I would need to completely uninstall the debian
version and install from source, correct?
I am using synths that require JACK MIDI support, such as AZR3, using the
Debian Sid binary package of the released 0.103 jackd. Haven't had any need
to compile anything.
JACK MIDI seems to work just fine in the released jackd package. I use the
alsaseq2jackmidi utility to access it. The connections show up in the
released QJackCtl, jack_lsp, and aconnect. I connect my synth to
alsaseq2jackmidi using MIDI, then connect alsaseq2jackmidi to the synth
using jack.
I'm told that yet-to-be-released SVN versions of jackd do the bridging
within itself, obviating the need for this alsaseq2jackmidi kludge, but I
haven't had any need for that yet.
