Default Roland A-800 Pro

Maybe you could help me? I recently purchased the A-800 Pro keyboard and a personal user license of Reaper (v5.95) for Linux, plus an M-Audio Midisport 2x2 midi interface. My purpose is organ practice and recording audio. Somehow I cannot find out how to get the keyboard working in Linux. Whatever I try (via interface, directly via usb), Reaper doesn't recognise the keyboard. I am completely inexperienced with DAWs and rather overwhelmed by all the options. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I had a quick look on the Roland and M-Audio sites and it appears that neither product supports Linux. Before Reaper can see external hardware your computer must see it. This usually requires drivers provided by the manufacturer.

Without the appropriate drivers your computer doesn't know what that thing plugged into it is for. Reaper is completely oblivious to it.
