Hi there,

I've been using Csound4 on Linux for quite a while, and decided to bump up to 
Csound5.

Scons works great as a new build system, but it seems that Csound5 is badly 
broken for my purposes.

I'd like to use my serial port (/dev/ttyS0) for send MIDI data to Csound, 
which worked fine in Csound4 (simple--- "-M/dev/ttyS0" and you're good to go)

Why is such a simple thing so impossible with Csound5? I tried the 
"-+rtmidi=alsa -Mhw:1,0" options, and Csound5 doesn't even recognize that I 
have a virmidi driver in the kernel, complaining of no such device.

I tried the "-+rtmidi=null -M/dev/ttyS0" line, and that failed too....why is 
this so hard?

Frustrated,
Aaron.
