please take off the caps lock. I really cant help much, but you probably shouldn't drive your car with no temp. gauge.
Rotary engine+overheating=bad

what color smoke

Cwaters

Smoke on start-up is commonly diagnosed as bad oil seals.

Your spedometer is probably dead. you should try to get another gauge cluster from a junkyard and swap it out. OR try replacing the cable.....

tempature sensor bad? Probably unrelated to the spedo problem.

have you ever blead you clutch fluid? how long since you last new clutch?

your PS beep seems like something everyone has but nobody has a real answer for

white smoke would indicate
a bad water seal inside the engine
has your car over heated?

My smoke is blue and smells a lot like gas, however when I go with it it turns into white smoke, what the hell is up?

Your PS beeps and fails cuz you have no speedo. Fix the speedo, you will fix that too. Probably the cable came off under the dash.

Beware the no temp gauge issue. Keep an eye on your coolant level, someone may have removed the low coolant sensor... and white smoke generally means coolant being pumped into the combustion chamber. How long have you had this car?

the beep is probably the speedo not working like previously stated but if it is a five beep pattern that means that it could be anything to do with the power steering. check out my thread "Duh... whuts that do??"..... i went through a whole bunch of diagnostic stuff and most of it is in there.

check to see if your temp sensor is still in the top of your radiator. that is the temp sensor right guys?

oh to put the cable on the speedo you gotta reach around underneath everything and "get it from behind..."

I have a feeling the buzzer is the shift buzzer.

Smoke=Bad seals, the posts above cover the smoke and which seals.

No temp reading-Make sure you are getting voltage from the sensor in the rad. It could be you need a sensor.

How many miles are on the car? Have you ever had the clutch replaced? Obviously a lot of miles, and hard driving will cause a clutch to just go bad.
