As John O'Hagan already suggested, try to modprobe snd_seq and snd_seq_midi. If that works without errors the device should be created. If that goes wrong post the error messages, the output of dpkg -l udev hotplug and the relevant part of lspci so that we know which hardware we are talking about. -- Regards, Florian -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
