[PD] midi problems on Ubuntu

[Carl Najafi]

hi list,

i just recently switched from xp to ubuntu and i'm
having difficulties getting midi to work in pd. i've
been struggling with it for a week, but i can't get it
to work - at all.

i had some general midi problems, but those were taken
care of with fluidsynth, but when i run fluidsynth
first the audio is blocked when i start pd, and vice
versa.

it would be very kind if someone with the knowledge or
similar experiences could help me out here.

i'm running pd-0.39-1 on (breezy) ubuntu and i have a
(crappy) on-board soundcard.
