I have been having the same problem - although I'm using the raspbian buster image so I have pd 0.49.
Unfortunately there is no aconnect-gui in raspbian, and I have found that aconnect -l finds pd's midi ports only when you start pd with the -alsamidi -midiindev and -midioutdev flags.
The command syntax to connect the USB midi device to pd using aconnect then becomes:> aconnect 20:0 128:0
I'm looking to have all this automatically setup on boot so I can run headless. If anyone knows how to do that please let me know...
Cheers

Howdy Paul,
Here is a quick response without knowing your background or experience with Pd/MIDI/Linux...
- Do you have Pd's MIDI input enabled? I don't see one listed, just the
"Pure Data Midi-Out 1"
- Are you connecting devices? By default, aconnect doesn't connect
anything automatically. I did a quick search and found this which may be helpful if you are not familiar with aconnect or aconnect-gui:

If you use aconnect-gui, basically just connect you devices output to Pd's input.

I'm running pd-l2ork/purr-data
I cannot get any midi input, probably due to a woeful lack of skill/knowledge. aconnect -i client 0: 'System' [type=kernel] 0 'Timer ' 1 'Announce ' client 14: 'Midi Through' [type=kernel] 0 'Midi Through Port-0' client 16: 'Mbox 2' [type=kernel,card=0] 0 'Mbox 2 MIDI 1 ' client 20: 'USB Midi Controller' [type=kernel,card=1] 0 'USB Midi Controller MIDI 1' client 32: 'MidiSport 2x2' [type=kernel,card=4] 0 'MidiSport 2x2 MIDI 1' 1 'MidiSport 2x2 MIDI 2' client 128: 'Pure Data' [type=user,pid=22170] 3 'Pure Data Midi-Out 1'
aseqdump -p 32 shows a well-behaved midi data stream from my WX5. testone.pd however shows no midi input from any device.
Can anyone help me to get that midi data into my patches?
Best regards,
/Paul
