This section describes some miscellaneous hardware devices supported by FreeBSD. Note that none of these lines are included in the GENERIC kernel, you'll have to copy them from this handbook or the LINT kernel (which contains support for every device):
PC joystick device.
Supports IBM BASIC-style noises through the PC
speaker. Some fun programs which use this are
/usr/sbin/spkrtest
, which is a shell
script that plays some simple songs, and
/usr/games/piano
which lets you play songs
using the keyboard as a simple piano (this file
only exists if you've installed the games
package). Also, the excellent text role-playing
game NetHack (in the ports collection) can be
configured to use this device to play songs when
you play musical instruments in the game.
