M-Audio Oxygen 8 with Ubuntu 8.04
3 comments1. Go to the Synaptic Package Manager, search for "m-audio", you'll find midisport-firmware. Install.
I think that after installing midisport-firmware Ubuntu should already detect the devices and remap them, but as seem that it's not doing it, then:
2. Open a Terminal, and type "lsusb". If the device is connected you should find something like Bus 005 Device 005: ID 0763:1014 Midiman
3. Type this (but with your bus/device): sudo fxload -D /dev/bus/usb/005/005 -s /usr/share/usb/maudio/MidiSportLoader.ihx -I /usr/share/usb/maudio/MidiSportKS.ihx
It should be similar for other M-Audio devices. Now I can use my old Oxygen 8 keyboard with Aldrin :D

Thanks! This is the most clear explanation on the internet of how to get the keyboard working!!!
Yep. Very good explanation. Works also for me on 10.04. Thanks.
