NAME
bbc_beep - Platform-dependent Beep driver for BBC-based hardware. SYNOPSIS
beep@unit-address DESCRIPTION
The bbc_beep driver generates beeps on platforms (including Sun Blade 1000) that use BBC-based registers and USB keyboards. When the KIOC- CMD ioctl is issued to the USB keyboard module (see usbkbm(7M)) with command KBD_CMD_BELL/KBD_CMD_NOBELL, usbkbm(7M) passes the request to the bbc_beep driver to turn the beep on and off, respectively. FILES
/platform/sun4u/kernel/drv/sparcv9/bbc_beep 64-bit ELF kernel driver ATTRIBUTES
