I'm trying to get midi working with my ymfpci based card ... I didn't
know I had to specify the mpu_port in my module options. Does anyone
know what value I need to pass? or how I can find out?
I guess I need to add something like:
options snd-ymfpci mpu_port=0x???
currently I just have this:
#sound specific modules
alias char-major-116 snd
alias snd-card-0 snd-ice1712
alias snd-card-1 snd-ymfpci

Basically you must instruct modprobe to connect up the MIDI port (usually
0x330) when it inserts the soundcard driver.
I assume you have checked here for details, no?

My /etc/alsa/modutils/0.9 file looks like this
(It probably will work for you, but I'm guessing)
---------------------------------------------------------------
alias char-major-116 snd
alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0
options snd-intel8x0 mpu_port=0x330 index=0
options snd major=116 cards_limit=1 device_mode=0660
alias char-major-14 soundcore
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss

If you are using mdk-9.2 then your modules directories may be set up
differently from Debian (which is what I'm using). Under Debian you then
perform an 'update-modules'. You may have to do something different from this.
Configuring your mpu401 (or whatever MIDI port) should
sort this. Rosegarden4
does work, it's not quite as immediate as MusE, but makes up for this in
other ways ...
