This problem is compounded by the fact that on some computers it is impossible to lower the volume of the PC speaker to an acceptable level. On my system, even at its lowest setting, it literally hurts my ears when the PC speaker beeps through my headphones. Is there not some way of automatically configuring GNOME/GTK+ to use the KDE system notification for its system bell? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Load a GTK+ app, such as XEmacs. 2. Do something to cause a system bell, such as trying to scroll up past the beginning of the buffer in XEmacs. Actual Results: 3. Annoying, ear-splittingly loud noise emanates from the PC speaker channel. Expected Results: 3. The default system notification sound should have been played. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
