Ok, thanks Lee. What I did was (quite naively)
$ asfxload PC51f.sf2
After doing this I got the message "no memory left on card" or
equivalent.
Rosegarden then played the instruments, but many of the instruments did
not make any sound when selected. This may be (almost certainly is) a
problem with my understanding of Rosegarden, having used it for almost
15 minutes.
I don't really understand what is going on in full yet -- I'm really
very new hence the many yasq's.

Many thanks Julien. I found I was windozed; the
soundfonts on the CL cd
were labelled *.SF2, not *.sf2, which was why I couldn't find them. I
have since loaded PC51f onto my soundcard, but as my sound card only
appears to have 8 megs of space on it, I have a somewhat cut down
collection.
This does not make sense. The PC51 soundfont should work perfectly - it
does here. Soundfonts don't get loaded into the card, they are loaded
into system memory.
Does anyone have any reccomendations on which
soundfonts to use, or
whether it's better to use a softsynth, or maybe I should just try these
things out...
The PC51 soundfont is considered one of the best.
Many Thanks

Hi,
hello,
Yet Another Stupid Question: I have a Creative
Labs Soundblaster Audigy,
with no soundfonts loaded onto it. I have placed the CL CD in and found
no soundfonts with it.
i found it in a french CL CD....it is in a sub-sub-subdirectorie.....
I do have the PC51f.sf2 soundfont, which I assume
you load onto the soundcard with asfxload, but the last time I tried
this I couldn't make my any noise.
after that you should use aconnect....with aconnect -lio (list input ouput)
and aconnect client:port recept:port
maybe you need to tweak the alsamixer...
