[L2Ork-dev] midi not working

[Albert Graef]

Well, all I can say is that if you can set up your connections with
patchage then it surely works with qjackctl, too. Make sure to switch to
the ALSA page in the connections dialog. Click on the input device in the
left pane, then on `Pure Data` in the right pane, finally click the Connect
button. That's all. Setting up the permanent Patchbay is a little bit more
complicated, but not all that hard either.

As Github makes creating Wiki pages with screenshots so awkward, I've made
a Wiki page on my Bitbucket:

https://bitbucket.org/l2orkubuntu/l2orkubuntu.bitbucket.org/wiki/Pd-L2Ork%20FAQ

I've tried to describe the process as good as I can. Let me know whether
that works for you.
