I read in my 1995 book or somewhere that linux did not support awe-32 midi 
playing but apparently some time since SW7.1 this has changed.  Do you 
know of any programs for linux designed to play midis on awe32 cards (like 
freeCDP or the other DOS program) without needing patches added?  These 
cards already come with 1M of sample sounds (and at least 512K space to 
add more samples).  sample sounds = midi patches?

Why reconfigure when you can just use the settings they are already set 
to?
freeCDP also diagnoses the settings.
