i'm new to this list, so i hope i'm doing
everything right.
I want to use my Korg 05 R/W midi soundmodul via the serial tohost
interface as an midi Soundmodul for midi data coming from the linux-box
and (!) as an Midi Interface for my keyboard connected to the korg05r/w.
In other words : the soundmodul should play my midis from computer and
should transfer the midi data coming from the keyboard to the computer.
the keyboard is connectet with midi-in and the computer is connected to
to-host.
I'm using the snd-serial-u16550 driver from alsa.
OK, I am not familiar with this device. Is this essentially a soundcard or is
it slightly different in some way?
After having a few problems it works, with only one
Problem:
I have to "restart" (turn off and turn on) my soundmodul everytime i
change the program or the midifile.
In some midifiles i have to restart it in the middle.
Weird.
In windows i didn't have this problem, so i think
it havt to work unter
linux, too ?
No, not necessarily - this just means you don't have any hardware problems.
Look your device up here to see if it is supported by ALSA:

If there are further configurations you need to make they should be listed
here. Other places worth looking are:

My System :
DeMuDi testing
Kernel 2.6.16 selfcompiled and realtime patched
starting driver with :
snd-serial-u16550 port=0x2f8 irq=3
