I fired up Puredata (PD) yesterday, pulled up my first (and only) attempt at putting a MIDI-controlled patch together, and for some reason, it wasn't hearing MIDI. So this morning, I troubleshot it.
Turns out that under the Media menu, PD remembered that I use OSS for sound output, and that I had default-MIDI selected, but didn't remember the MIDI devices that I was using, so when I pulled up the "MIDI settings..." dialog, it showed "none" for the input and output device. First time through, I tried switching to ALSA and back, and I seem to recall somehow that worked, but as I write this up, it leaves the MIDI devices blank. Anyway, when I set them both to "OSS MIDI device #1", it works just fine.

Do you think you could explain how you solved it in a step by step guide as i dont really understand what you mean.
