Hi,
"xset b" controls bel volume, pitch and duration (from "man xset").
Does it work on the same bell/beep as pommed, or these are different beeps?
Regards,

Using pommed
------------
-Launch pommed at startup, a simple init script will do.

+Doing beep
+----------
+
+The beep works only if the uinput module is loaded. You can check if it
+is loaded with "lsmod | grep uinput". If it is not loaded, load it manually
+with "modprobe uinput" or automatically by putting it in /etc/modules (or
+something like this).

+How the beep works: Basically pommed creates an input device in userspace
+which handles beep events and the kernel happily passes them along, then all
+pommed have to do is ... well, *beep*.
