[Bug 619727] New: no beep once system boots
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=619727 http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=619727#c0 Summary: no beep once system boots Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.3 Version: RC 2 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.3 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Sound AssignedTo: tiwai@novell.com ReportedBy: daved@windclimber.id.au QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686 (x86_64); en-US; rv:1.9.1.9) Gecko/20100317 SeaMonkey/2.0.4 When machine boots, if openSuSE DVD is in drive, machine beeps when grub loads. But that is the last beep I can obtain. Commands like "echo ^G" or "echo -e '\a'", or trying to backspace past the start of line produce no bell. Setting an xterm to visible well displays the bell properly but in the normal mode there is no sound. Playing the test sound from yast's sound module works properly. No beep from a virtual terminal either. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. echo -e '\a' 2. 3. Actual Results: No beep.

On 11.3 kernel, mute "Beep" mixer control. Then it'll switch back to the native PC-speaker beep. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

But how do I access this? alsamixer gives "cannot open mixer: Connection refused", and gamix gives an X system error: (gamix:8872): Gdk-WARNING **: Native Windows wider or taller than 65535 pixels are not supported ** (gamix:8872): CRITICAL **: murrine_style_draw_box: assertion `height >= -1' failed ** (gamix:8872): CRITICAL **: murrine_style_draw_box: assertion `height >= -1' failed The program 'gamix' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'. (Details: serial 211 error_code 11 request_code 53 minor_code 0) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.) -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

If this still doesn't work, it means that the problem is somewhere else. For example, pcspkr driver isn't loaded, or snd-pcsp driver is wrongly loaded, or so... -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

There seems to be no beep frequency control, i.e. "xset b X Y Z" changes the values shown by "xset q" but there is no change to the beep.

So I have tried commands like echo -en "\033[10;500]\a" and find I can get beeps of any choosen frequency. Is this relevent to the question of whether the hardware is capable of frequency control?
