Hi, Takashi:

  No, it's 1.6.9, and I just now figured out how to drive it with MusE
under these ALSA conditions:

[dlphilp_AT_localhost dlphilp]$ aconnect -i
client 0: 'System' [type=kernel]
    0 'Timer '
    1 'Announce '
client 64: 'External MIDI 0' [type=kernel]
    0 'MIDI 0-0 '
client 72: 'External MIDI 1' [type=kernel]
    0 'MIDI 1-0 '
client 80: 'Virtual Raw MIDI 2-0' [type=kernel]
    0 'VirMIDI 2-0 '
client 81: 'Virtual Raw MIDI 2-1' [type=kernel]
    0 'VirMIDI 2-1 '
client 82: 'Virtual Raw MIDI 2-2' [type=kernel]
    0 'VirMIDI 2-2 '
client 83: 'Virtual Raw MIDI 2-3' [type=kernel]
    0 'VirMIDI 2-3 '
client 129: 'MusE Sequencer' [type=user]
    0 'MusE Port 0 '

[dlphilp_AT_localhost dlphilp]$ aconnect -o
client 64: 'External MIDI 0' [type=kernel]
    0 'MIDI 0-0 '
client 65: 'Emu10k1 WaveTable' [type=kernel]
    0 'Emu10k1 Port 0 '
    1 'Emu10k1 Port 1 '
    2 'Emu10k1 Port 2 '
    3 'Emu10k1 Port 3 '
client 72: 'External MIDI 1' [type=kernel]
    0 'MIDI 1-0 '
client 80: 'Virtual Raw MIDI 2-0' [type=kernel]
    0 'VirMIDI 2-0 '
client 81: 'Virtual Raw MIDI 2-1' [type=kernel]
    0 'VirMIDI 2-1 '
client 82: 'Virtual Raw MIDI 2-2' [type=kernel]
    0 'VirMIDI 2-2 '
client 83: 'Virtual Raw MIDI 2-3' [type=kernel]
    0 'VirMIDI 2-3 '
client 128: 'RTSynth v1.6.9 synthesizer' [type=user]
    0 'Input '
client 129: 'MusE Sequencer' [type=user]
    0 'MusE Port 0 '

I thought the virtual MIDI output port would work if wired to the
RTSynth port, but it doesn't, no matter what client I use. However, this
works well:

        aconnect 129:0 128:0

So why doesn't the virmidi method work here, i.e., what's wrong with
this:

        aconnect 80:0 128:0

??

Best regards,
