I've tried to run solfege under Ubuntu too without success.  Timidity 
exists in universe, however since timidity-patches aren't in Debian 
Unstable I'm guessing they weren't pulled into Ubuntu.  You can download 
the .deb for timidity-patches (sorry, can't remember exactly where I got 
it) and install it via dpkg, but I'm still running into configuration 
problems.  I'll look at it some more and let you know if I come up with 
anything.
