Hello,
I've been trying to get input from a midi keyboard with alsa, so I compiled and ran
Matthias Nagorni's code at http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/MIDI-HOWTO-9.html , the code
follows this message. The application simply blocks and does nothing, regardless if
midi input. It does respond to SIGINT. I have gotten midi to work under OSS emulation
with /dev/sound/sequencer, and have been able to extract input from my midi keyboar
wit /dev/snd/midiC0D0 and /dev/midi00. I'm running alsa 0.9.2 with the linux kernel
2.4.20. Would anyone know how to fix this? Thank you ofr your time.
