Not sure about the latest MDK 10.0 rc1. I have the isos but have not had
time to install and mess with. Seems lots are having issues with Alsa on
2.6.x? kernel?

Anyway, try here: http://rpm.nyvalls.se/sound9.2.html
Yes, it's 9.2 but you might get lucky...I'm NO expert! (Clearly)

Scroll down and look under the "Usb MIDI interfaces"

If your not familiar with Thacs RPMS then this is an awesome site to
know for MDK audio users. URPMI instructions on top of the page too.
I have a Midisport 2x2. It lit right up first plug.
