How to turn off keyboard bell
Hi there, I'm having a difficult time turning off the keyboard bell. I have tried kbdcontrol -b off and setting keybell=NO in rc.conf, but this only shortens it down to a chirp. If I set kbdcontrol -b visual, then the audible bell goes away completely and I get a flashing screen instead. What am I missing here? How can I turn the bell off completely? This is on a fresh install of 4.9. -Bob ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

You might want to try updating your sources with cvsup, or simply applying the patch that fixes the bug (below), and rebuilding your kernel. http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/dev/syscons/syscons.c.diff?r1=1.336.2.15r2=1.336.2.16 -Chris P.S. please CC me in any replies as I am no longer subscribed to this list. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

For those that may be interested, in sh/bash (or actually readline), it is done with set bell-style none in inputrc. But this still doesn't affect programs that don't use readline. -Bob ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
