In self-diagnosis of my thread "timidity.cfg not found" I tried
tried this to some, very small avail...

I installed /usr/pkgsrc/audio/guspatchtes which was the only
source of a timidity.cfg file I could find for NetBSD. Then I did
this...

baal: {5} sudo ln /usr/pkg/share/guspatches/timidity.cfg /usr/pkg/etc
baal: {6} timidity ~/chimes.mid
Playing /home/aplonis/chimes.mid
MIDI file: /home/aplonis/chimes.mid
Format: 0  Tracks: 1  Divisions: 96

Playing time: ~16 seconds
Notes cut: 0
Notes lost totally: 0
baal: {7}

Which abates the error message. But still I get no sound from out of
my SBLive card which otherwise works (for *.wav, xmms, mplayer, audacity).
