wxl:

The problem I ran into with qjackctl was from my lack of care in 
configuring it.
It works perfectly, now that I fixed my bad configuration.  It seems 
rock-solid and reliable.
And (finally) the 1.1.6 version of Fluidsynth (Qsynth) is available with 
13.04, so I don't have to apply a PPA fix to libfluidsynth1. That 
version also doesn't hang the system if there isn't enough memory for 
its soundfont(s).
I really like 13.04, for that reason alone.

I put it through some pretty challenging tests, and Qsynth came through 
without cutting out (underruns).
So my minimum system is still viable for running MIDI, if only we can 
sort-out the software-updater problem.
