  A simple test would be to launch qjackctl and look at
the connect 
 panel's MIDI 
 tab - if you don't see anything there, then MIDI isn't working.  
in qjackctl I have 62:Midi Through as a parent and 0:Midi Through 
Port-0 as child in both readable and writable clients.

  You should already have:
 snd-seq-midi
 as the first entry in /etc/modules (?). In the past I've had to add:
snd-mpu401-uart
to that list in order to get it working. Check what your soundcard uses. 
snd-seq-midi is one of the loaded modules.  I have noticed that 
snd-mpu401-uart is listed in aadebug.  I'll try adding it to 
/etc/modules.  In the meantime, what I'm looking for is a simple test 
program that when I press on a key from the keyboard, something lights 
up or sounds to tell me that it's connected and working in some fashion.
