*I installed openSUSE RC1 last November about, just before the last final version, and it picked up my Line 6 KB37 right away as far as MIDI Keyboard goes. My unit has two meters, only one lit up. I have a mid-2009 MacBook Pro I tried to do a PC-BSD full install, a openSUSE full install, and many others. Nothing worked 100%. I am in the hopes aptosid Linux or Knoppix will fly soon. I am tired of being stuck with Apple; I can not afford a new machine since I wound up totally disabled, and on disability now. The only thing holding me back is my dependence on Line6 KB37 to jive with Linux or FreeBSD. I do get a good install with Ubuntu, but the RAM limitations of Ubuntu cripple my 8 Gigs of RAM capability. I am not savvy on how to get Ubuntu to go past 2 or 3 Gigs of RAM? I prefer the Debian GNU Distro's. The MacBook is hard to do away with being so proprietary this and that. Anyway, check out the openSUSE for how they got their Distro to identify my KB37 right away during install, and 'mostly' have it serviceable. It might help you guys? It surprised me at first, I was not even done configuring, and openSUSE had my KB37 identified as such, and ready to go. I never tried the full features, because too many other issues like no lights on my keyboard, no camera, etc... I will try my Knoppix on my Virtual Box with your drivers, and see how it goes. If I was not poor now, I would send you guys money. Thanks for all you do, and know I appreciate your work! Sincerely, Georg Curnutt * -- Georg "WildeGeist" Curnutt P.O.
