wow, i too am glad to see that it created as much discussion as it did.
and yes, i do believe that "sesame street" can be left alone. However
i'm completely open to the Star Wars "Imperial March". 8-) I do think that if
you have a startup "tone" that you have a shutdown "tone" play right
before complete shutdown. I remember some of the distros i tried had
the following as a startup beeps. Both the following had a beep program: ipcop - 6-7 note beeps/notes going higher smoothwall - 3 beep/notes increasing I found the FreeBSD port to this here: http://www-user.rhrk.uni-kl.de/~f_osterf/beep/ (actually with this i think "Imperial March" could be done) :-) astaro - 5 sequencial plain pc speaker beeps (also had power down beeps i remember) Sorry for the long post but i figured i should chime in to my own disscusion, thanks again.

What about Milkdrop for the screen saver? ;_) ok I'll stop now.I do agree a beep would be sufficient. -----Original Message----- From: Holger Bauer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, September 30, 2005 2:11 PM To: support@pfsense.com Subject: AW: [pfSense Support] beep on ready suggestion I don't think we need something other than beeps, but they have to be unique so you know that it's a "ready" beep and not something caused by the bios or a system going down beep. We can leave the sesame street theme to other more "colourful" firewalls ;-) Holger -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Scott Ullrich [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Gesendet: Freitag, 30.

I wish to say congrats to the development people and the people in this mailing list as i have poured over the lists trying to get things to work. i'm very impressed with how things are progressing and the level of support someone can get here. I wonder if i could make another small suggestion now, i remember using various firewall/router distros in the past and most all of them had a simple feature of beeping in some fashion to tell the user that the machine is up and ready for traffic. i never realized how much i liked that until i didn't have it with monowall. i was wondering if something like this could be added to pfsense. I think users with a completely headless machine would agree that this would be helpful. and I know I would appreicate it very much, thank you :-) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]--------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]--------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]--------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ____________ Virus checked by G DATA AntiVirusKit --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] |
