Yes, but only once. It caches the information about the plugins parameters
and such. Just let it run. If it seems to hang, Ctrl-C it, and start
vstserver once more.

Thats not much point. You can't send midisignals to vst-plugins from SND.

What? I don't have my linux-machine here so I can't test that. But it
sounds very strange that you can't start seq24 if a vsti is running.
What happens? Is there any messages to the console?
Can you start seq24 if jack-rack is running? (the midi code in vsti is
stolen from jack-rack)
I'm sure either/both Rob C. Buse (author of seq24) and/or myself are
interested in some bug-reports here.
