From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.76 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.2.16-22 i686) Kmidi don't want to play midi-files, because it does not find instruments. A symlink from /usr/share/apps/kmidi/config/instruments to /usr/share/timidity/instruments will fix this. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Stupid question! - Well - I just use it! 2. 3.
The real fix is to use absolute pathnames in /etc/timidity.cfg, done in the current timidity++ package.
