[Techtalk] Timidity and Alsa

[Daniele Dutra]

Hi David,

Try adding/uncommenting the following line:

TIM_ALSASEQ=true

If that doesn't solve the problem, take a look at the following page:
http://www.cs.cornell.edu/~djm/ubuntu/
There's a section about installing and configuring timidity (Install
TiMidity (MIDI player/software synthesizer) )

Cheers!
Daniele
