Ahhh My Amiga !
Still in my loft is my trusty A1200, complete with 030 accelerator, 32 MB !!! of RAM , SCSI CDROM etc etc Wires hanging everywhere, case that wouldn't fit because of the 3 1/2" drive, external cooling fans.
Even had it running OpenBSD once, maybe one day I'll drag it along to one of the ALUG meetings

Rosegarden and Muse are the big midi sequencers for Gnu.
On the offchance you're running Mandrake, this page is indespensible for music:
http://rpm.nyvalls.se/sound10.0.html
Even if you're not it's worth looking at the docs.
You'll likely want vkeyb (virtual midi keyboard) and/or one of the aconnect frontends for midi routing, eg. kaconnect, or qjackctl if you think you might want to run the jack-audio-connection kit, which you'd need for realtime audio.
Gnu audio's all a bit of a work in progress at the moment, but you should already be able to do real work, particularly if you just want midi.
HTH.
