-Roaming Network, with 3G, WiFi.
-Remote Desktop software to take care of the machine while away.
-Ability to sleep and wake-up... In the proper console.
-I know Bluetooth technologies are there - get your shit together!
-And with a Secure Shell too!
-Multimedia keys
-Obvious peripherals (nokia phone, Zen music player, iStuff)
-Nice interface, without rude consoles with lost of ugly warnings
-Compilers-ready
-VirtualBox capable
-And lots of available software at hand, of course, with a nice and easy installer.

 # modprobe snd_seq_midi


 # lsmod | grep usb


 $ lsusb
 $ amidi -l
 $ aconnect -i or aconnect lio 


 aseqdump -p ##

(where you should replace ## with the client number of your keyboard from aconnect -i)


 $ a2jmidid -e

The Ubiquitous Korg:

0944:0117 KORG, Inc. nanoKONTROL2 MIDI Controller

The Korg Setup software is an .exe, but works with wine


The Hungarian Pedal:

http://www.linux-usb.org/usb.ids

as:

05e4  Free shared USB VID/PID pair for MIDI devices

and returns here as it should as:

 ID 16c0:05e4 Van Ooijen Technische Informatica Free shared USB VID/PID pair for MIDI devices

The short manual on the ebay page reads as follows:

Plug and play, no driver or installation needed. Just plug it into a free USB slot and your OS will recognize it. 
Choose USB Midi device in your software settings and you're ready to go.
Two controller mode:
*   Mode 1: Changing whole presets. The controller sends program change messages. 
The LEDs indicates which preset is working.
*   Mode 2: To activate this mode, press buttons 2&3&4. To change back to mode 1, press buttons 1&2&3 
(All LEDs will blink for half a second to indicate this).

 In mode 2 the controller sends control change messages. It allows you turn functions/effects on and off individually. 
 The LEDs indicate their status.                    
 In mode 2, press a button for 10 seconds to switch to momentary mode. (All LEDs will blink for half a second to indicate this).
 It allows you to use non-on/off functions like 'previous/next preset', 'tape deck play' etc.
 The LEDs do not light up in momentary mode since it's unnecessary.

External pedal input. You can connect any standard pedal with a 6.3mm (¼ inch) stereo jack.  Using an “insert” or “Y-shaped” cable.

To use the full range of the pedal you may have to calibrate it.
Calibration:  Step 1:turn the pedal to minimum position and press button 1 AND button 3. 
              (All LEDs will blink for half a second to indicate this).
              Step 2:turn the pedal to maximum position and press button 1 AND button 4. 
              (All LEDs will blink for half a second to indicate this)
              The device will save the calibration data so you only have to do it once.
