Actually, it's KMID, not KMIDI.

Looks as if it may be that KMID expects there to be either hardware
support for midi (which this sound card does not provide--it's
es1371) or a midi-to-something-else converter, such as timidity++
which also isn't present.
Seems strange that the system would install KMID without the other
tools it needs...
Anyway, I don't seem to be able to find a RH5/Centos5-compatible timidity++
build anywywere. I tried recently to build it and gave up with a series of
errors that I didn't have the ambition to work around. Anyone know where
I can find a suitable RPM for Timidity++?
Gracias!
