Need Help With Oms, Midi Setup, OMS, midi, midisport problems Options

hi

so im very adept at using Cubase as a sequencer, as well as using Mac. my problem lies in using midi. i have not been able to get the OMS set up correctly, and in turn, my midisport 2x2 doesn't work either. all i really want to do is get my yamaha keyboard to work as a midi controller for reason, battery, reaktor, etc. ive installed the proper drivers for the midisport on my OS 9.2, as well as the newest version of OMS. im just not really sure what to do next. here's what ive done so far:

plugged in my midisport 2x2 into an open USB slot, hooked up my keyboard to the midi in port on the midisport. at this point, ive tried OMS setup.(clearly here im doing something wrong) everything is hooked up, but when i have OMS search my system (printer and modem ports) the OMS crashes.

if anyone has good, detailed instructions on getting all my midi working properly, it would be VERY appreciated! thanks!

i'm sick of all this "oms" talk on this site.
cubase dosen't need it, it will recognise any midi interface as a standard interface!
if midiman drivers really DO need oms to function, they surely are "packets of junk".
life does exist beyond oms!
i use logic, but a good friend uses cubase without oms.
we both did the same thing...
configure oms, then remove it's components from the system folder and de-activate it in the sequencers' midi preferences.
voila, massively enhanced midi communication!
p.s.
another good friend of mine uses dp without oms succesfully, the only people i know who HAVE to use oms are my protools "chums".
