Elliot,
Thanks for the response. I want to be able to play midi files (hymns,
particularly). I have a bunch of them, but when I try to play them (and I
tried the exact syntax you provided in your email), playmidi displays the
following:
[bill@localhost bill]$ playmidi -e
/usr/local/unpack/www.geocities.com/Heartland/Pointe/7524/hymns/spiritofthelivinggod.mid
Playmidi 2.4 Copyright (C) 1994-1997 Nathan I. Laredo, AWE32 by Takashi
Iwai
This is free software with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY.
For details please see the file COPYING.
It hangs for a while, during which time a VERY VERY faint clicking /
humming sound can be heard it I turn the speakers all the way up, but no
music comes forth.
I also want to be able to hook up my Quickshot Midi Composer keyboard via
Linux.
All this works under Win95.
Thanks again for your help,
Bill Johnson
