Midi on SuSE 8
by Jason Farmer 30 Aug '02

HI Everyone Does anyone know how to make MIDI work on SuSE 8? I want to use the built in Synth capabilities of my SBLive. I look in the MIDI part of the sound settings and there's nothing there. I'm a bit puzzled about how Linux handles MIDI anyway so if anyone could explain it to me, I'd be grateful. Regards Jason Farmer

So Far.. This is Real Kool. Where would you suggest is the best place to add " /sbin/sysctl -w kernel.lowlatency=1 " to the boot sequence?

Does Suse provide an optional low latency kernel? I've heard rumors. -- Gary Counsellor http://www.musician2000.com sineigs.all.attitudes(a)eskimo.com Please remove .all.attitudes before replying

I just reinstalled suse 8.0, and now there are no visuals with synaestesia cd. but the music plays. Anyone got any ideas? I re-re-installed it, but it still doesn't work. Is there supposed to be a hidden file in /home... ? Are there any other apps like this that you would recommend? Franklin

make modules for soundcard.
by Mike.P.Smith＠kp.org 27 Aug '02

Hello, can anyone help to point me in the right direction to solve the following problem. I have a 7.3 installation, with a soundblaster live soundcard. It worked fine in KDE with the stock 2.4.10 kernel. I downloaded and installed the suse 2.4.16 kernel source rpm and updated to the 2.4.16 kernel, via make oldconfig, make dep, make bzImage, make modules, and make modules_install. When I boot to the new kernel my soundcard does not work. I can see that the directory for the soundcard modules is missing "/lib/modules/kernel_version/misc". What did I do wrong during make modules/make modules_install? Why did the /misc modules directory not get created? Thanks for any help, Mike
