Please read the file README and INSTALL for more general STK information.
Realtime support for Linux is currently using either the Open Sound System (OSS) or the Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA) sound and MIDI APIs. The free version of OSS works as well (and in some cases better than the commercial OSS version ... such as with my Maestro 2e chipset). In general, the ALSA drivers also seem to perform well. You can read more about ALSA at http://www.alsa-project.org/. ALSA is open source and holds great promise for audio under Linux. The API is selected during compilation using either the __LINUX_ALSA__ or __LINUX_OSS__ definitions.

The API is selected during compilation using either the __LINUX_ALSA__ or __LINUX_OSS__ definitions. The configure script uses the OSS API by default. The ALSA API can be selected by passing the "--with-alsa" option to configure.
STK should compile without much trouble under Linux ... afterall, it is primarily developed on Linux platforms. Since all Linux distributions typically include the GNU makefile utilities, you should be able to use the default Makefile. Typing "make" will initiate the compilation process.
MIDIATOR SERIAL PORT MIDI SUPPORT:
STK now has special support for the MIDIator serial port MIDI interface. This is of primary interest to us laptop users, whose computers usually don't have a gameport. If you want to buy one of these devices, make sure you get the MS-124w model (www.midiator.com). For it to work in STK, you must provide the __MIDIATOR__ definition during compilation (in addition to either __LINUX_ALSA__ or __LINUX_OSS__).

There are a few things that need to be done on your system to get the MIDIator working. Assuming you wish to attach the MIDIator to serial port 0, add the following lines to your bootup sequence in /etc/rc.d/rc.local:
