I'm still bothered with this problem, I would like to stress now that many
people in my office stay away of this "beeping system" and get a very
stressfull idea of linux.
There are many ways to disable it:
* reconfigure the kernel
* configuring bash to not beep (thanks a lot Lawrance for the howto link)
* unplugging the pc speaker
Still they are not good solutions:
* people can't always mod theyr hardware
* not everybody likes to make "techy patches" to their system
I really think there should be an easy way to disable it, or even better to
have it disabled by default. I don't know anybody relying on their pc speaker
for any purpose other than having the mainboard complain the hardware isn't
plugged in correctly: I think the time is come OS'es should drop pc-speaker
support.
I didn't ever hear windows vista beeping, maybe it does for really critical
situations. So a good solution could be to keep the pc-speaker module compiled
as you like but have bash configured to "nobeep" by default.
