(linux_command_line)-> (Parent)->disable bell/beep from the linux command line submited by Russell Wed 02 Dec 09
Web kangry.com
It has annoyied me (and my sleeping wife) that when I press tab to auto complete a command line and there is more than one choice the linux command line (bash anyway) choses to beep. When I am viewing a remote desktop via vnc (vncviewer/vncserver) this bell/beep comes over the internal speaker and not the volume adjustable sound system. I finnaly found this little nugget. which is the magic little command xset -b. I issue this command from a xterm window inside the vncsession and instantly all the bells are disabled on that session. This command is one of those throwbacks to the days where not everybody even ran x. It's very hard to find this setting in a dialog box. (command line rules)
