If you want to disable the beep within a linux console:
I also use my
/etc/issue to set up my console upon relogin. To see what you can do read the
console_codes manpage.
The most commonly used by me are:
ESC[H and
ESC[J, which clear and reset my console. Looks kind of nice.
There is also a console code to set the length of the beep (to 0 of course):
ESC[11;0]
To insert an escape symbol in vi use CTRL-V and then ESC.
One can also use:
Code:
( clear && setterm -blength 0 && echo && cat /etc/issue ) &> /tmp/issue && cp /tmp/issue /etc/issue
This will set up your issue to clear the screen and set the length of the beep to 0.
This will only work until you "reset" your terminal.
