Still no beep?

Nope.

where do you want the beep?? in tcsh??

Yes.

Even it does not work in bash.

Such a hassle for a beep

i think you can set when you want the beep in tcsh ... like no matches ... multiple matches ... etc

let me see

It does not work in bash.

Even i installed the beep package. And i ran # beep -d /dev/speaker -p 800 5, but it did not work again.

i do not know then ... i always disable and enable the beep with sysctl

OH. Is it related to BIOS setting? It can?

what's your MB ??

you have 1 in "hw.syscons.bell" and "kern.vt.enable_bell"

What is "MB" ?

i always thinked it was enought

you have 1 in "hw.syscons.bell" and "kern.vt.enable_bell"

Yes.

What is "MB" ?

Motherboard I guess

Maybe there is a BIOS setting, but I'm not sure

AH.

I am so surprised that freebsd is pretty much like arch Got no issue

and Got my old dwm and everything working pretty fine.

what did you expect ? FreeBSD is far older than Arch and has a nice experience toward stable releases.

I thought its not good for desktop but. it contain everything all packages.

it's meant to be used on desktops. just doesn't support propriority hardware like linux do

"not good for desktop" could be said for nearly any Unixoid OS ;)

Its more of a jack of all trades, though its more meant for server use, you can also use it as a desktop

oh, i may be wrong :)

There was nothing in the BIOS about "Beep" sound. @n0madcoder

Have you any idea?

Have you any idea?

Do you have the beep hardware actually

Have you any idea?

FreeBSD 13 comes with beep disabled by default. You have however enabled the sysctl setting manually, so my only guess is that the hardware may not have the beep speaker. Could be?

Do you have the beep hardware actually

Yes. It was work when i had Linux.

Which hardware is it? Laptop?

OH, but i have the beep sound in Artix Linux and Antix Linux.

Which hardware is it? Laptop?

Nope. It's a PC. Which information do you need?

Motherboard?

Motherboard: ASUS P5P4 1TLE

Let me check. But my best guess is to search on sysctl to verify if your setting is actually being read

We do not have the pckspkr module in FreeBSD. It's speaker module in FreeBSD.

The pcspkr module is for Gnu/Linux distributions(IIRC).

And i have to say, the spkrtest command does not play melodies.

Yes, $ kldload speaker

@Learner_DR did you echoed this after kldload: $ echo "cdefgab" > /dev/speaker

Yes, $ kldload speaker

I have loaded that. in /etc/rc.conf: kld_list="speaker"

@Learner_DR did you echoed this after kldload: $ echo "cdefgab" > /dev/speaker

Nope. Wait.

@Learner_DR did you echoed this after kldload: $ echo "cdefgab" > /dev/speaker

I ran: # printf "cdefgab" > /dev/speaker But it does not work.

Hmm. Not sure about printf. It should play a sound apparently

Does not work again.

Let me check on mine. Although it's a laptop one

I checked the dmesg and i got: WARNING: Device "spkr" is Giant locked and may be deleted before FreeBSD 14.0.

Yes, I'm having the same. I was about to write you hehe

I ran: # printf "cdefgab" > /dev/speaker But it does not work.

I can't create /dev/speaker even if it's being recognized and I use either doas or su

Yes, I'm having the same. I was about to write you hehe

The reason is this?

I think, i had it before loading speaker module.

It's weird. I enabled both kern.vt.enable_bell and hw.syscons.bell and still not getting any beep on my Thinkpad

kldstat reports speaker.ko loaded

I'm using twm on freebsd, and whenever it gets started in my .xinitrc, it prints errors like "warning: font for charset X is missing" While these errors don't impede me in anyway, its still annoying to see tens of them appearing in my tty after exiting Xorg Is there anyway to suppress these warnings from twm?

Did you make some search in bing/google/duckduck/etc?

Thank you, exporting LC_ALL before twm fixed the warning, I think I should set my locales system-wide
