If you need midi and other stuff (like soundfontbanks), you also need to install the diverse awe-* packages.
They provide kernel modules for awe sound support. They work just fine, but I've had problems applying the patch. If you experience any problems, just mail me, I've gone through this. Good luck, Marcus. PS: You need to compile the kernel after installing awe-* packages (and running the script as documented). But I would suggest the kernel-package for this, not the way described below. The you only need to follow the instructions in /usr/doc/kernel-package.
