Of course I'm just getting that stuff from memory. Take a look at the OSS install document. I guess Tim should email OSS and get the "official" answer.

Well, I guess that explains it. But I am curious about the legitimacy of their claim that it is 100% compatible with OSS/Free (http://www.opensound.com/linux.html). I am still glad I got it. The audio quality on my SB PCI 128 is greatly improved. Thanks for the reply.

I'm using OSS/Commercial and I too only have MIDI In and no MIDI out. This is because OSS does not support MIDI out because most card do not have hardware MIDI out. If MIDI out works with your card with other programs thats because the MIDI translation is done in software, not by the card. This is what I got from OSS/Commercial documentation.
no sure about a fix, I only use MIDI in.

Greetings, Yesterday I upgraded from OSS/Free to commercial OSS. Now MIDI
doesn't
work in PD, and apparently only PD. All other programs with MIDI still
work
(Brahms, Jazz, Csound). Is there anyone else using commercial OSS and PD with this problem? BTW, I get the message "opened 1 MIDI input device
and 0
MIDI output devices." This never happened under OSS/Free. Thanks.
