Seems to work with freepats but not fluidr3_gm (the _gs doesn't
contain that instrument), this is my timidity.cfg:

source /etc/timidity/freepats.cfg 
#source /etc/timidity/fluidr3_gm.cfg
#source /etc/timidity/fluidr3_gs.cfg

For fluidr3_gm, Ok for 50 instruments (lcr), 40 fails (ccr or crr).

Semms I'm using freepats in the future, thanks.
