I run scripts in my crontab but i'm not able to generate a beep in console mode.
I tried echo -e '\a' but no success while I can use sound.
Is there a pbm with my PC Speaker ?


Yoy did not mention what kernel you are using.

I use kernel 2.6.7


  In the 2.6.x kernels
there is now an option to turn on the PC Speaker.
# Input Device Drivers
CONFIG_INPUT_PCSPKR=y

:-) HTH, YMMV, HAND :-)

thanks to thomas & wayne for this information.
Let's compile (again & again...) the kernel :-)
