I am not able to find the fabled 'beep' package using a yum search
.
How can I make a beep on my system from the terminal without the package?
echo '\a'
does not work either.

Accounting for the comment that
echo
only "beeps" my computer, the question is not looking for a way to useecho
(ortput bel
), but for something like that mentioned in Remotely make the computer beep on built-in speaker.That wouldn't be in the standard CentOS repositories since it is not in Red Hat Enterprise. But there is a package for it on RepoForge, as shown here:
You could either just download the package and install it using
yum
, or configure your system to add RepoForge's repository (and install it just like any other package).
