For fatal Motherboard errors, there are "audible beep codes". Don't know what that means in context of a modern "all-in-one" motherboard but, a couple of computers ago, when my computer failed to boot, I called a friend and had him look up the beep codes to find out "dead video card". The stock Pi doesn't have a way to beep, but there is probably an add-on for that? If you ever do add some beep codes, think about how annoying it can get if it is beeping all the time! Another problem is ill timed beeping. I had one device that decided to beep at me every night at 3 AM. I have a lot of gizmos that can beep (smoke alarm, CO2 alarm, etc.) I had to wake up at 2:50 AM several nights in a row to wait for this thing and I gradually narrowed it down to find the "unhappy device" and feed it a new battery!

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
