Comment 47 for bug 208068

For best midi experience under Ubuntu install fluid-soundfonts-gm (GM!); it is 74 MB but it has the best samples. Use this together with timidity - to activate you need to change the /etc/timidity/timidity.cfg to use the file (just comment freepats and uncomment fluid gm)... or if you don't want to use so much space use freepats package...
