Hi,

So the Pygame 1.9.1 package for Arch Linux is still not complete.

Hi,
In Arch Linux, with 'python-pygame-1.9.1', running the midi example with the --list option, 

python -m pygame.examples.midi --list

gives

ImportError: No module named pypm

regrds,

        I'm trying out the new pygame.midi on Ubuntu Jaunty. I'm running
        examples/midi.py in output mode on Python 2.6.2 with pygame
        1.9.1 built
        from source without errors. portmidi and porttime were found
        during the
        build.

        The vkeybd app works so I know midi output (timidity) works fine.

        examples/midi.py displays properly and does not produce any error
        messages but it produces no sound.

        Any ideas?

        Thanks

    Hi Gary,

    Try the --list option on examples/midi.py to see if a virtual
    timidity output port is present. Getting some form of midi working
    with alsa is a hassel.
