Re: where do i find documents for bacula-console-qt
disclaimer: im not bacula expert. bacula documentation is not very good from my point of view. There is a book about backups that cover a little bacula, but it does not go deep into specifics. AFAIK, the set up has to be done from CLI and the configuration files (its not hard, basically, define storages, filesets, clients, jobs,...). Then the restore proccess can be done with bat more easily.

Well, i dont think i suffering from this issue, on a tty i get the same
result. Actually just calling the wall command produces the beep :)

Thank you for your response. I dont seem to have such option in alsamixer, nor in gnome3 sound settings. Actually i have everything muted, and still the freaking sound is coming out. I swear to god that I feel like I'll start killing soon. The voices in my head are starting to take control. (I am also getting deathly gazes from my coworkers, maybe i wont make it alive to the killing phase) Greets! aL -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Its one of the first ones that comes up when you google for it :). I have even tried some stuff that does not comes in that page, like setting it off in the gnome-terminal preferences.. with no luck I read in some post that wall sends this char ^G to the terminal, and this is the one that triggers the beep. Any kind soul has any idea how to fix this? my drilled head and spirit would thank them forever for more details, im on last testing under gnome greets! aL -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
