Description Tobias Leupold 2008-08-22 07:00:12 UTC

The default beep does not beep when compiled on a NSLU2. I don't know if this would affect the other architectures, but patching it with the patch from SlugOS fixes the problem.

I'll append the patch and an updated ebuild that also does a symlink from /bin/beep to /usr/bin/beep so that the leds script from SlugOS can also beep.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
emerge beep on ann NSLU2

Actual Results:  
# beep
--> silence

Expected Results:  
a beep :-)

I think this patch is included in beep-1.3 now in CVS.
