No. 2.4.XX ruby is totaly freezy.
Someone should edit this lines
decvte.c:1107:                  kd_mksound(vc->display_fg->keyboard, bell_pitch, bell_duration);
vt_ioctl.c:697:         kd_mksound(vc->display_fg->keyboard, arg, 0);
vt_ioctl.c:714:         kd_mksound(vc->display_fg->keyboard, count, ticks);

Relace vc->display_fg->keyboard with vc->display_fg->beeper

I cannot recall how correct works VGA under 2.4.XX, because
it stay unused in my end.
