I ran timidity -iA -Os -A90a as root (not as a user), and now it's working !
Thank for you help, on that.
What I'm trying, is to have Rosegarden4 working, which is ok now,
(except jack lost few samples).
The timidity acting as a server eat 20% of my CPU, is it normal (even
when nothing is playing) ?
