Description Kimmo Sundqvist 2004-03-19 03:34:29 UTC
I am trying to play a midi file to AWE32 PnP.  I have 2.6.2 kernel, but I am unable to load any instruments into the AWE32 PnP.  The soundcard has 2MB on-board RAM that is known to work.  The .mid file is also known to work, as timidity++ plays it without problems.  I will file a separate bug on the awesfx 0.4.4 package.  Restarting alsasound does the following:

 * WARNING:  you are stopping a boot service.
 * Unloading ALSA...
 * Storing ALSA Mixer Levels
 * Unloading modules                                                                                       [ ok ]

 * Loading: snd-seq
FATAL: Module snd_seq not found.
 * Loading: snd-emu8000-synth
 * Loading: snd-seq-midi

 * Restoring Mixer Levels

/etc/modules.d/alsa is writen according to all guidelines, and the Awe32PnP is the only card in this machine.

kmid gets stuck for about 10 seconds after stop, forward, rewind or "Midi setup..."

I haven't seen snd_seq mentioned anywhere in any help files or documentation.  Why is it there?   And why does sfxload say that /dev/sequencer doesn't exist?

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. run kmidi, load a .mid file
2. play the file, then ffwd, rewind, stop or use mouse to move the playing position indicator
3.

Actual Results:  
kmidi got stuck for 10 seconds, didn't update it's window, and I was unable to
do anything with it.

I'm not even sure about the application. I one midi app was dropped in favor of another from 3.1 to 3.2. Do you mean KMid? Is this stil an issue?
