NAME

6       grbeep -  Platform-dependent beep driver for SMBus-based hardware

SYNOPSIS

9       beep@unit-address

DESCRIPTION

13       The  grbeep  driver  generates  beeps on platforms (including Sun Blade
14       100, 150, 1500, 2500) that use  SMBbus-based  registers  and  USB  key‐
15       boards.  When  the  KIOCCMD  ioctl is issued to the USB keyboard module
16       (see usbkbm(7M)) with command  KBD_CMD_BELL/KBD_CMD_NOBELL,  usbkbm(7M)
17       passes  the  request  to the grbeep driver to turn the beep on and off,
18       respectively.
