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.
