As weird as this sounds I can play music with Aqualung (for example) but can't get a simple "beep" program to beep my speaker. It worked shortly after I got the system reloaded (4.30) on my old M700 Laptop. How can one work and the other not?! Totally confused at this point and hoping for someone smarter to point me to the right answer. |

Beeping is different from music. Music uses the normal speakers. Beeps use the buzzer on the motherboard. In Linux, that has its own driver. You can load it like this:
That command won't give you any output it it works. It only outputs stuff if it fails. If this restores your beep, you can make it permanent by adding that line to the /etc/rc.d/rc.local file (just open it in a text editor and add the command to the bottom). EDIT: Oh, I didn't realize you were the same person who asked this here. _________________ Between depriving a man of one hour from his life and depriving him of his life there exists only a difference of degree. --Muad'Dib  |
