<pre wrap="">Greetings,
I'm running LFS compiled Linux with the 2.6.11.12 kernel. I've compiled
xmms and can play mp3 files, so my sound card works.
However, I have no sound from either a command line or OpenOffice. For
instance, neither OpenOffice macros or "print \a" from a command line
will beep. This is probably someone quite basic. What should I check?

Is your PC speaker wired up? Does it beep during POST?
'\a' should ring the "bell" (aka, PC speaker) not your soundcard.

<tt>I've compiled alsa and turned on the PC speaker in alsamixer. I
get sound with speaker-test. Is that what you mean?</tt><br>
