 I still find it difficult to connect jack-keyboard on the right way to 
 for example rosegarden or qsynth. Never got some sound of it...

           JACK MIDI vs ALSA MIDI issue, I guess?  Does it work for you with JACK
 MIDI-enabled applications, like Ghostess?

         ghostess with whysynth is working... yes.

 tell me please what the most simple connection with jack keyboard to get 
 sound.

 Either a2jmidid or "-X seq" option to jackd.

    Can you give a screenshot of the jackconnections in either jack connect 
or patchage?
