1 If I install pcspkr in the kernel I have been able to log in then hit
2 backspace and have the speaker beep. Also When I have uncommented the
3 TUNE line in /etc/default/grub and then run grub-mkconfig -o
4 /boot/grub/grub.cfg I had a beep from the pc speaker before I logged in,
5 so yes, I got the system to boot. I need to do these extra steps since
6 I'm the only one in the neighborhood with any Linux expertise and do not
7 have sighted assistance readily available and I've never seen anything
8 in this life.
