[PlanetCCRMA] midisport 2x2 and delta 44 mutually exclusive?

[David Ames]

Hi everyone --
I just installed the CCRMA core on a fresh new RH 9 system.  I did
alsaconf and it got my Delta 44 working, and then I noticed the
instructions for setting up usb midi.  The system didn't seem to
recognize it (/proc/asound/cards only listed the delta 44), so I rebooted
my system, and X wouldn't start.  So I took out "card_limit=4" from
/etc/modules.conf, and rebooted the system (with the midisport still
plugged in), and all the system scripts gave green go's and X started up
fine.  I checked /proc/asounds/cards and this time it showed the usb-midi
but not the delta 44.  (Jack and aplay didn't work.)  So I ran
/sbin/alsaconf and that got the soundcard (and aplay) working again, but
then /proc/asounds/cards showed the delta 44 but not the usb-midi. 
Here's the /var/log/messages from when that happened --

Anyway, sorry to take up so much space, but I thought maybe someone would
know what was going on.  BTW, I just spent a couple of fruitless days
trying to get an audio system running on Slackware, so I really
appreciate how relatively idiot-proof and well-organized planet CCRMA is!
 Thanks in advance -- David
