Yes it is the midiator-0.3 driver. When I try:
#./read_midi
MIDI reader . Version 0.3
No OSS midi device detected
No $MIDI_DEV set, trying /dev/ttyS0
MIDI device opened: /dev/ttyS0
Initializing MS-124w
ioctl to get tty info failed: Input/output error
can't open MIDI port
Any clues where I might be messing up?
for my system the path to setserial is in /bin not
sbin
I have since changed this could it be some other kind
of small thing like this?
Thanks
-Darwin
