aconnect -io:

I tried with all ports (hw:0,0 - hw:0,4) this command:
amidi -p hw:0,0 -d

but nothing when I press the keys.

Maybe I should try Edirol *UM-1EX or some other cheap USB solution.*

Wow, this looks interesting but I don't know if I have the guts to do
that. Thanks for the tip, I'll look for that if everything else fails.

That reminds me of great line in movie "Twin Town" :
"If everything else fails, try Wales"
