Ah, but that is not what is usally meant by the term "PC speaker".
That is the thing that "beeps" after the BIOS has done POST.

I guess some others might only have the beep fed through their computer
soundcard also. Now either ctl-G or \\007, checking mail and the like
will beep after modprobe pcspkr is initialized.
I take it that the original poster found a resolution and now can use
system beeps? This was the main goal for the replys to the original
question posted.
Original post:
Even after modprobing pcspkr (and verifying that it's loaded, via
lsmod), I can't seem to make my laptop squawk. "echo -e '\\007'",
neither in a terminal window, nor or any one of the ALT-VTs, seems to
have any effect.
I know that the laptop can squawk -- it does it when I turn it on, so
I must be missing some other crucial step.
