I just give it a quick look, but it seems great already.
:-)

MidiDrivers* don't sound a good name for such classes.
MidiPortProducer and MidiPortConsumer seems more accurate to me, but 
that's just a suggestion. 

Beside this, for the Consumer side, I'll be intersted to see if most of 
/dev/midi/* ports 
don't already return from read() only one event at a time, by using the 
midi parser kernel module.
You won't need to do it again in your GetData() thread, in this case.

However, there is still the sysex messages to handle...

Yeah, capture this default midi=5Fserver icon for the /dev/midi/* port he 
publish.
According to nm --demangle midi=5Fserver, it come as small (16x16) and 
big size (32x32), but not as resource unfortunatly...

// recursively wander down from a path, looking for "midi" devices to 
publish
static void lookup=5Fdevices(const char *       path)
{
        BDirectory dir(path);

        if (dir.InitCheck() !=3D B=5FOK)
                return;
                
        BEntry entry;

        dir.Rewind();
        while (dir.GetNextEntry(&entry) >=3D 0) {
                BPath name;
                entry.GetPath(&name);
                if (entry.IsDirectory())
                        lookup=5Fdevices(name.Path());

                int file =3D open("/dev/midi/ymf754/1", O=5FRDWR | O=5FEXCL);
                
                cons =3D new MidiPortConsumer(file, name.Path());
                cons->Register();
                prod =3D new MidiPortProducer(file, name.Path());
                prod->Register();

        };      // while        
}

And somewhere in your main:

lookup=5Fdevices("/dev/midi");

Hope this help.
