ALSA-MIDI will be builtin on Linux by default, unless you explicitely disable it (ALSA).

You must tell Pd to use it at runtime.
Either via the "-alsamidi" flag, or by selecting it in the media menu.
You must *also* make sure that the number of MIDI-ports opened by Pd is "1" or more (in the MIDI-dialog, or via "-mididev 1"). The default is "0" for some reason (I might have been involved in that default, but can't remember...)
