I use Beep for indicating the interfaces are up etc..
/bin/beep -f 600 -n -f 900 -n -f1200 -n -f1800 -f 600 -n -f 900 -n -f1200 -
n -f1800 -f 600 -n -f 900 -n -f1200 -n -f1800
I found an article Simple Sounds for Linux
By Jay Link ( do a google an yee shal find...)
which I used as a rough guide
it said:
Usage is simple. Both programs take two arguments: the tonal frequency in
Hertz, and the duration in milliseconds. So, let's say you compiled
beep.c.direct into "beep". Here's all you'd need to do:
beep 440 200
This will play a 440 Hz tone for 200 milliseconds, or a fifth of a second.
To play multiple notes, it's often necessary to insert a "rest" between
them, like so:
beep 440 200
beep 0 200
beep 700 200
Note that the "spacer" note, or rest, plays at zero Hertz (i.e., it
doesn't play at all), but it continues for the same duration as the other
notes.
Using the beep program, it's easy to play simple melodies. Here are the
frequencies for some basic notes:
262 C - "middle C"
277 C#
294 D
311 D#
330 E
349 F
370 F#
392 G
415 G#
440 A
466 A#
494 B
To find the frequencies of subsequent notes, simply multiply the highest
note you know by 1.0595, and then round up or down as appropriate. For
example, 494 * 1.0595 = 523.393, or 523 Hz, which should be the "C" note
that's one octave above middle C.
