I have set: $ cat /usr/src/linux/.config | grep PCSPKR CONFIG_PCSPKR_PLATFORM=y CONFIG_INPUT_PCSPKR=y and can confirm that it doesn't click of beep, despite me setting it to do so: $ xset -q | grep key auto repeat: on key click percent: 80 LED mask: 00000000 auto repeating keys: 00ffffffdffffbbf $ xset -q | grep bell bell percent: 50 bell pitch: 400 bell duration: 100 Another box of mine used to beep (I like having the bell turned on to remind me that I am typing rubbish ;) but some months ago it stopped doing so. I never bothered looking into it and assumed that some change in Xorg caused this. -- Regards, Mick
