on my ubuntu box i did the following to test with...

sudo modprobe pcspkr
sudo apt-get install beep

to keep it permanent, edit "/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf" and comment out the
 "blacklist pcspkr" line toward the bottom of the file... then it will be added
 at boot...

i have converted the page files i mentioned above... i'm going to try another
conversion format, too... that and i need to see if i can locate the source for
 beep2 and see if it will work... if it does, it will provide a better way of
scripting than what i'm currently using with beep... but it works! close
encounters, sweet child o mine, blueberry hill... i wrote a script to convert
the whole lot otherwise it would have been much too tedious...
