Has anyone ever gotten the playmidi program that comes with FreeBSD to
work?  I have not, but I can get tracker and s3mod to work.  Playmidi
gives me this error that says:
playmidi:  Aborting.  Playback device not set.
What does this mean?  How DO I set the playback device?  I have the midi
line  for my soundcard in my kernel and it boots up fine with no errors.
The are not IRQ conflicts or anything either.  If I can't get this silly
program to work, can anyone tell me of a good midi program for FreeBSD?
Thanks!
