SOLVED

hmm...i have to find it myself :idea:
I downloaded timidity++ rpm for fedora core 3 and installed.then tried :
#modprobe snd-virmidi
#modprobe snd-seq-virmidi
then ran
#timidty -A500 01Caprice_1.mid
Playing 01Caprice_1.mid
MIDI file: 01Caprice_1.mid
Format: 1 Tracks: 2 Divisions: 256

It played the .mid file through a speaker as you see i put 500% amplification for it to hear atleast:(
another itch is it plays only a channel (i can hear only from one speaker and if i increase volume
scratchy sounds...:( :( )
now i need to enter these modules(snd-virmidi etc...) into /etc/modprobe.conf.Someone can help me to get it played in the proper way(OR is this the proper way):wink:............thanks
