Whoops!

I forgot to say, I'm using csound 3.482 on a Linux system. I compiled it
myself with pgcc and haven't run into any problems with it so far. I
have tested the MIDI in/out with other applications (RTSynth, Jazz++,
even Cakewalk HS 3.1 under Wine) without a snag... so far, Csound is the
only thing that can't talk to /dev/midi.

Anyone else ever get this error?

Thanks,

PW

this problem was solved some 3-4 months ago. Could you please pick up
a more recent version? You can do so easily from Dave Phillips' bgsu
repository (ftp://mustec.bgsu.edu) or from the AIMI site
(ftp://musart.dist.unige.it/CSOUND). You can even pull out the latest
snapshot of linux sources through CVS, if you have it installed:

cvs -d ':pserver:anonymous@axdev.axnet.it:/home/nicb/projects/repositories' -z6 login
Password: guest
cvs -d ':pserver:anonymous@axdev.axnet.it:/home/nicb/projects/repositories' -z6 co csound-linux
cvs -d ':pserver:anonymous@axdev.axnet.it:/home/nicb/projects/repositories' -z6 logout

(you can set CVSROOT to whatever the -d '...' says to avoid typing that
three times).

ciao

Nicola
