Guest tigre Posted April 3, 2005 Report Share Posted April 3, 2005 2) Got to www.linmodems.org and download the scanmodem script. Run the script and follow the instructions they give you in the files it creates. Not all soft modems will work with linux. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lärs Posted April 21, 2005 Report Share Posted April 21, 2005 Umm, what kind of soundcard do you have? Devries gave a link above, if you have a soundcard that has wavetable (or FM maybe) midi, you should use that. The method does work for SoundBlasters or Audigy, that method will work. Perhaps it will work with other chipsets as well. If you want software midi, you'll have to look elsewhere. However, most of the software midi tutorials are for OSS, and apparently it seems you're using ALSA (as most nowadays are using :P ).
