* On 16.03. I muttered on linux-audio-user(a)music.columbia.edu:
  But I still can't load a soundfont:
 til@debian:~ - sfxload /etc/midi/Fender2.sf2
 No AWE synth device is found 
I saw that asfxload is needed for ALSA.  So I did this:
til@debian:~ - asfxload /etc/midi/Fender2.sf2
No Emux synth hwdep device is found
What's going wrong?  What can I do to get a soundfont installed?
TIA
Til
