playmidi

[Will Lowe <lowe@cis.udel.edu>]

I'm triny to play sound with playmidi,  as users other than root (I'm
hoping to do some serious work in rosegarden for a composition class this
semester).
But I'm getting /dev/sequencer: permission denied errors.

One soloution is obviously to chmod /dev/sequencer so everyone can open
it,  but that sounds dangerous.  Is it any more dangerous to just setuid
root playmidi?
