Just wondering if anyone has gotten solfege to work
with either
external midi ports, virmidi, or a soft synth using alsa and not oss.
I have been struggling with getting it to play to my midi port or to
virmidi, and have no clue how to select the device properly. There is
little explanation as to what the options in the set up area mean. I'm
on gentoo.
Hi Iain:
I just took a look at the audio preferences for 2.0.2, there's no
provision for anything ALSA. :(
The other options offered were /dev/sequencer, /dev/sequencer2,
/dev/music, and none. Selecting /dev/sequencer2 and /dev/music gave me
error messages, /dev/sequencer was selected without error but I got no
sound from the test. No MIDI activity appeared on my patchbay.
The Solfege Web site includes instructions for wedding timidity to
/dev/music. Didn't work for me though, I still received the error for
/dev/music.
Best,
