# 2.2. Requirements

In order to successfully compile KMidi, you need appropriate versions of the program libraries in `kdelibs`. All required libraries as well as KMidi itself can be found on .

To compile the ``dumb'' commandline interface of TiMidity, any standard Unix-type system should do. The other interfaces have special requirements (see the various README files in the distribution). The Motif interface works reasonably well with Lesstif, but better with Motif.
