[PD] Problems with MIDI input, but only on Linux

[Jim Ruxton]

Thanks Kevin,
I'm running RH7.2 . I think it is probably a different issue. I'm not
hotplugging my 2x2 but manually loading it. One thing I have noticed is
I can't have any midi data going into the 2x2 when I load the drivers or
it won't work. None of these problems occur in Windows.
