[linux-audio-user] help with virtual midi?

i've been trying to set up an alsa virtual midi card (to use Steem
with some soft synths) to no avail. i'm running FC4 planet ccrma
kernel 2.6.12-0.21.rdt.rhfc4.ccrma on a fujitsu s2020 laptop. had no
trouble back when i was using ccrma FC3... (i tried posting on the
planet ccrma list, but got no responses, so i'm hoping this group can
help out?)

attempting to hand load the snd-virmidi module results in:

 [root@email-addr-hidden bernie]# /sbin/modprobe snd-virmidi snd_index=2
 FATAL: Error inserting snd_virmidi
(/lib/modules/2.6.12-0.21.rdt.rhfc4.ccrma/updates/drivers/snd-virmidi.ko):
Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)

 ...but when i look at /var/log/dmesg (is that the right place?) i
can't see anything relating to it.

any help would be much appreciated...
