Re: how can I get a beep sound when GRUB appears

One thing you may possibly need to do once you uncomment that line is
to run
sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
If this still produces no beep, then it's likely that your device is
incapable of beeping before the kernel's sound driver is loaded, in
which case, you will hear nothing from GRUB.

That should be it.  You can check in your /boot/grub/grub.cfg that the
"play 480 440 1" command appears, and that there is
/boot/grub/i386-pc/play.mod.  If so, then perhaps your machine simply
doesn't have a standard PC speaker :/

how can I get a beep sound when GRUB appears

2015-09-17 Thread Milton

Hi,

A question for a TERRA MOBILE 1712 dual boot with Ubuntu 14.04 and Orca 
3.16.2.
I would like to enable a beep sound when GRUB appears. So I did in a 
terminal:

sudo gedit /etc/default/grub
and I notice the line:
# Uncomment to get a beep at grub start

#GRUB_INIT_TUNE="480 440 1"

So I did uncomment the line and ran update-grub.
But still no beep. Do I miss something? Thanks.
Milton
