I posted earlier about problems with midi and the intel 8x0. I thought the midi device listed was a sequencer, but I guess thats not the case. Is the mpu uart device just for a hardware midi interface? In any case I tried using timidity, but its playback for midis is really strange. I wouldn't characterize the sound as slow or delayed, really, but it sounds like the timing of the notes is really off. I'm running on a 2.4 ghz processor with 768 mb ram so it shouldn't be a problem processing I wouldn't think, but I don't know. I'm also running kernel 2.6.4.
