[Rosegarden-user] new to Rosegarden - just setting up (SB Live & Ubuntu)

[<ma...@sp...>]

Hi there,

Don't know how often the digests arrive so I thought I'd go ahead and write 
anyway. Let me know if I'm out of line...

Trying to get Rosegarden 4 v1 working with a SB Live soundcard and Ubuntu 
Linux ('hoary') v5.04. Digital audio side of the soundcard is fine, since MP3 
audio players, Audacity etc. work ok. Can also play .mid midi files using 
pmidi, KMid and timidity, now that I know how to load sound fonts. ALSA and 
jackd are present.

Remaining problems: 
1) I can only get Rosegarden to play one note of a demo song, each time I 
press start;
2) I cannot seem to record midi data from my external midi piano - can't see 
how to monitor the joystick port for activity.

If anyonce can help with this, I'd be extremely grateful, to the point of 
offering a cash reward! I've got to get on with my music!!

Regards,

Matt Roberts
