Just a suggestion that a blurb be put in as part of the post-install of /usr/ports/audio/beep that it requires /dev/speaker. If one tries to run beep without /dev/speaker, beep will error. IIRC, GENERIC doesn't include the device entry for speaker anymore and thus requires one to load the module for speaker via: kldload speaker Once that is done, beep will work as expected. The default permissions for /dev/speaker is 600 as well. Thanks Reuben -- Reuben A. Popp Systems Administrator Information Technology Department East Central College 1+ 636 583 5195 x2480
