Enable in Ubuntu
|
|
|
|
|
================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you want some scripts to emit beeps, e.g. because you don't always have your headphones on, you first have to enable
|
|
|
|
|
the `pcspkr` module. This is per default disabled in Ubuntu. To enable it again, do the following:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. open `/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf` in your favorite editor (using `sudo`)
|
|
|
|
|
1. find these lines:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# ugly and loud noise, getting on everyone's nerves; this should be done by a
|
|
|
|
|
# nice pulseaudio bing (Ubuntu: #77010)
|
|
|
|
|
blacklist pcspkr
|
|
|
|
|
1. comment out the last line
|
|
|
|
|
1. finally, do a `sudo modprobe pcspkr`
|
|
|

After that, you can play around with the [beep](apt://beep) program.
