How to make a simple beep?

["Garth's KidStuff" <garthskidstuff gmail com>]

Hey All,

I'm running under Ubuntu 8.10 and want to make a simple beep -- like the
Windows Beep function which takes a frequency (in Hz) and a duration (in
milliseconds).  Does anyone have a place to point me?

TIA

-Garth
