jackd -Rdalsa -dhw:0 -r[snip] -p[snip] -n2 -Xseq, resp. run QjackCtl and
then for 'Setup...', by the option 'MIDI driver' select "seq",
spinymouse11.2 at suse11-2:~> cat .jackdrc
/usr/bin/jackd -R -dalsa -r44100 -p512 -n2 -D -Chw:0 -Phw:0 -Xseq ...
btw. the up to date version of jackd doesn't need the '-R' switch for
real-time anymore. Anyway, the '-Xseq' switch should provide a bridge
between JACK MIDI and ALSA MIDI. IIRC a little bit annoying are the
'names', resp. aliases in the JACK MIDI tab.
