 All class-compliant midi devices work with Linux out-of-the box. Midi keyboards as well as USB-midi interfaces work without problems. No additional drivers are needed, except midi connections on Firewire devices, which use Ffado drivers.
+MIDI devices should also "just work" in a web browser in Linux. This article [[http://tangiblejs.com/posts/web-midi-music-and-show-control-in-the-browser|on tangiblejs]] is a good intro on web-based apps that can interface MIDI hardware.
