That looks fine, but seems a bit win-centric (or am I missing something).

In the meantime I found:

http://seq24.wikispaces.com/Compiling+Seq24+on+Ubuntu+Hardy+(8.04)

I successfully grabbed the source and compiled it here. So maybe I 
should rephrase like this:

"Which (popular) patches are not checked in at launchpad"? For instance 
I heard about mute-groups, is that in there?

Also, one of my biggest needs last time I worked with seq24 was to have 
something non-looping going on, for instance a solo. I remember having 
trouble with opening up the right time window in song mode for the solo 
to come in at the right place (or something like that). Has any advance 
been made with regards to this, basically allowing patterns with any 
length to be easily recorded and placed anywhere in the song? So in a 
context of 4 bars loops record something across that like this:

| 4 bars | 4 bars | 4 bars | 4 bars |
       | some irregular music |

Sorry for all the re-newbie questions.
