No, I don't think so. You mean /var/log/messages?

Thanks. I've got rawmidi working, and it doesn't seem to have a problem
with the master volume slider. So I guess it is an alsa-seq issue.

If I move the slider I get this in rawmidi (4 lines for each increment):

read f0
read 01
read 7f
read 7e

read f0
read 01
read 7f
read 7d


Are they valid MIDI messages?
