Thanks for you reply. I managed to build and run the development version

Using soundfont I was never able to add a region from a loaded sample. I
never get "paste" when right clicking on an instrument. I'll try the
stable version.

c. I was wondering what are you people using as a
sampler in Linux. It
is a little bit sad that two of the very promising projects are
stopped: Specimen and Chionic ( http://www.reduz.com.ar/chionic/ ).
LinuxSampler is an excellent project but it seems that, for now,
you are limited to using giga sampler format and what I'm looking
for is a sampler were you can create your own patches from audio
files and map them to a keyboard. AFAIK there are no ways in Linux
for making giga sampler banks. I was checking LMMS and the sampler
seems to be very limited as it doesn't allow you to map samples to
keyboard regions... Is there any solution (beside Csound and PD) for
creating your own sample patches with amplitude envelopes and
keyboard mapping?
Fluidsynth with Swami may be what you're looking for. It is used to
create sample-based instruments in SF2/Soundfont-format, which you
then can use either on a Soundblaster hardware synth or in one of the
many libfluidsynth-based software synths like fluidsynth itself,
fluid~ in Pd, the fluidsynth opcodes in Csound etc. Swami is an editor
for creating the Soundfonts.
It's a very widespread and well documented format and can be made to
sound really great. Check for example the NSKit soundfonts, I used
the ns_piano in this track: http://footils.org/cms/show/49
