effort to solve.... pfieuw.... (that was really a waste of time...)

Thanks!

I use the default version in the Ubuntu repo.... I thought Ubuntu was
one of the most up to date distro...!?

Other related question...

I thought to be smart and use the soundfonts of finale 2007 with qsynth.
But will work, with the *.sf2 extension, but the ones with the *.sfx
extention doesn't work.... Is there a way to work with this kind of file
on linux??

Regards,

Dirk
