external midi on SB16
Has anyone had any luck connecting an external midi device (say, a tone
generator) to the midi port on an SB16? I've got the card working ok,
but I can't get any programs to send output to it. Sending
anything to /dev/sequencer or /dev/sequencer2 results in the crappy SB FM
midi synthesis, rather than in nice tones from my tone module....
Here's the output of "cat /dev/sndstat", if it helps ...
