Hello Ohannes,
you must add
\midi {}
inside \score {} just after the \paper {} command. If you omit \midi
lilypond does no generate MIDI output.
You can convert .midi to .ly (the reverse) using midi2ly.

I finally got lilypond working on my RedHat 7.2. I was able to run the
sample .ly file and create .dvi and .ps files. One question I have is
how do I convert a .ly file to a midi file. I see there is an -m option,
but I am not sure if this option is supposed to play the song or create
a midi file.
