Motu Fastlane OMS/Freemidi problems

[Dave 23]

 Mac mini 1.42 running modded OS 9.2.2, Logic 6.4.1- all working great.
  Motu Fastlane is not detected by OMS though- auto setup only contains Quicktime music, Iac Driver and Studio Patches pgm chg

  FreeMidi 1.48 is installed (includes Fastlane driver).

 Can anyone walk me through the FM/OMS installation process? ...(and how to enable in LAP 6.4.1...I was pretty sketchy on this back in 2002- even more so now!)
 In the past I had success on an eMac running 9.2.2 native (Fastlane driver/icon showed up in OMS setup)...but can't remember how I did it.....

 Btw, my needs are quite minimal- I just want to slave the Mini running Rebirth to an OSX machine running Logic... is the Fastlane an ok choice or should I be looking at something more "professional" to ensure best possible timing?

    thanks for any help/ insights...

normally you only have to run the installer and reboot.

if there is something wrong with out OMS 238, the motu installer would complain.

in case you did a "manual" installation you might become confused with the motu OMS driver beeing called something like "motu usb" ... and put  it in /extensions instead of the OMS folder?

according to the manual, it is only one file for each of the jobs: one OMS driver, one FM driver, one USB driver.

I think you could be right about "motu usb"....   I managed to copy the relevant extensions from the eMac and it all suddenly worked.
     It's a long time since I last looked at Os9 !
..also I'm in uncharted territory with a modded os on a mac mini, so I'm not sure what's a glitch in the Matrix and what's not at the moment...
 Thanks for your help.

everything should operate "normal" except the built-in audio hardware.

I haven't used FreeMIDI, but whenever I have made any significant changes to my configuration I remind myself to run the OMS Setup application so that it knows what drivers/ports I want it to use. Sometimes this has puzzled me when I forget which Mac is set up for what gear.
