Hi all,

I am a Linux newbie, and I am trying to get my Turtle Beach USB MIDI work.

I have no idea what to do to let Debian testing detect the USB MIDI thing (it's a blue USB cable).

When I plug the USB cable dmesg says:
[...]
usb 2-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 5

usbview says (UHCI Host Controller):Turtle Beach USB MIDI 1x1

But I don't know how to set up the MIDI with alsa (correct?) in order to use the USB MIDI cable with rosegarden.

alsaconfig only detects the Intel Sound card.

Here is lspci:

Is there any tutorial I might use to install the USB MIDI Cable with ease and possibly use it with rosegarden?

Is there anything else you guys need to know to help me out?

I have a ThinkPad G41, Debian Testing with kernel2.6.15-1-686-smp (not custom).

Thanks in advance!
