hi,
just add a line like the following to /etc/rc.local

play /usr/share/sounds/phone.wav

This is assumming you are using redhat or fedora.

Since I mostly use software speech to access Linux, I don't have access until the login prompt, so it'd be nice to know when my machine is displaying it. If someone could send me that information again I'd appreciate it.
