midi stays disabled.
I got the very same problem after upgrading to mandriva 2007. I
installed the new version of qjackctl from sources (0.2.21) and it
improved the midi tab.
more likely the original poster doesn't have the snd-seq kernel module
loaded. lsmod is the diagnostic tool here. for some reason, lots of
distros fail to load this module by default.
