Hi. I am using Red Hat 6 (soon to be 6.1) linux and would like to set it
up so that I can use MIDI sequencing software. I am using an old Gravis
Ultrasound classic for the MIDI and have a synth connected to the PC.

How do I set up Linux to use MIDI??  I checked to see if I have /dev/midi
but I don't seem to have this device installed. I would like to be able to
record MIDI compositions using the synth.

I used the sndconfig utility to test the soundcard but the test didn't
work so I am assuming Linux is not detecting the soundcard although I have
set it up for the GUS.

Any help would be appreciated.
