Am I the only concerned about this?  My 2.6.30 is still
silent w.r.t. old good PC speaker beeps, and I wasn't
able to make it to produce any sound.  Yes, as pointed
out by others there is a control now, in alsa, and I
can hear ugly and scary beeps from my stereo speakers
(when they're turned on and when the control is un-muted).
But that's.. not a solution/answer to the original
question... ;)

Try 2.6.31-rc1.  There was a fix regarding beep frequency.

You mean this one:

     ALSA: hda - Fix digital beep tone calculation

?

Note it's about alsa/hda beep.  Probably to make my new
"alsa beeps" less scary.  But I'm asking about PC speaker --
see the $subject line.  I'm missing PC speaker beeps, not
alsa beeps.

Thanks!
