No, no, no! I don't want to disable my loudspeaker! For example, I get beeps through my ssh connection with my ISP telling me that new mail has arrived.

(OK, I want to disable the beeping when I click to exit XFCE too, but I've sent that question to an XFCE list.) > -- > Regards > wabe -- Alan Mackenzie (Nuremberg, Germany).
