FreeBSD 9.2 - does not appear to support the 'dc' PCMCIA NIC driver

I have a Netgear FA511 PCMCIA NIC that worked fine under 9.1. Under 9.2 I get the following message: Oct 6 21:38:11 monitor4 kernel: dc0: port 0x1100-0x11ff irq 19 at device 0.0 on cardbus0 Oct 6 21:38:11 monitor4 kernel: dc0: attaching PHYs failed This used to work under 9.1, does anyone kno

How do I ring a bell?

In the good'ol days I could make UNIX ring a bell (literally) by sending \a to the console TTY (an ASR33 in my case). Now there's an electronic synthesised ting or beep from an terminal emulator IF it's got a sound card and so on, and an IBM-PC had a beep routine in the BIOS. Is there any way
