How to stop the BEEP sound?
Example: When I press backspace in the shell in front of the prompt I hear this annoying beep! sound and I want to turn it of.
But I also want to be able to listen to MP3s if i want to. So how do I do this? :Pengy: I have a laptop Compaq Armada 7800 with a pentium II processor and 96 mb ram with Slackware 9.0 |
Bash bell
On some soundcards, you can set the volume of the bell independantly, with the "speaker" setting in the mixer.
You can also disable the audible bell altogether by putting "set bell-style none" in your ~/.inputrc. If you still want to notified of bell events, set the bell style to "visible" instead. This will blink the screen instead of beeping (I am not saying this is any less irritating, though...). Cheers, Odie |
i'm pretty sure it is a kernel config option that you just take out. Don't quote me on on that though. I think I took it out, when i recompiled because i don't have it anymore.

Code:
echo "set bell-style none" >$HOME/.inputrc Code:
# Configure the system bell. Options are none, visible, and audible. PS. Since this is a Slackware forum I posted the Slackware response, but this is pretty standard across distributions, so while I haven't been on a RedHat derivative for a while I assume it's still somewhat valid. |
lsmod
rmmod pcspkr (if exists) add to blacklist if loaded on boot |
Where would I type in the code at? I'm sorry but I'm really new lol.
I did disable it though finally through the sound manager thing but I never had that happen on windows and never had a sound control that control that kind of beep so it took me a while to figure that out. |
