I'm having trouble with MIDI & USB & FC4 & Mac MINI & Alsa. It worked a couple days ago, but now it's broken. As far as I know, all I did to break it was reboot. So let me describe: I have a Mac mini, (which is Power PC) which I loaded FC4 on to. I wish to use raw MIDI with a program I've written. I plug in a Edirol UM-1X USB MIDI interface, and the following shows up in /var/log/messages: Jun 27 08:43:16 mini kernel: usb 4-1: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 3 Jun 27 08:43:16 mini kernel: usb-midi: Found MIDISTREAMING on dev 0582:0052, iface 0 Jun 27 08:43:16 mini kernel: usb-midi: Found MIDIStreaming device corresponding to Release 1.00 of spec.

However, the MIDI doesn't show up in alsa. Here's /proc/asound/devices: [root@mini etc]# cat /proc/asound/devices 1: : sequencer 16: [0- 0]: digital audio playback 24: [0- 0]: digital audio capture 0: [0- 0]: ctl 33: : timer Help! Where can I look for hints as to what's happening? Note: I've used this device successfully on Suse 9.2/i386. I've also used it (once!) successfully on a different Mac mini, FC4. Thanks. Rich
