    beep at shutdown

    I've desactivated the terminal's beep but it already sounds, but only when I click the shutdown button.
    I use Ubuntu 9.04 on a Dell Vostro 1000

    Thank you.

    Hello, ravica.

    Firstly, the system does beep for a reason. It's a warning.

    However, it is very annoying.

    Since you've already tried quieting it with the terminal, I'll point you to this:

    Code:
    gksudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
    And paste this line at the end:

    Code:
    blacklist pcspkr
    Please come back and post whether or not it actually worked?

    Best to you, ravica, and good luck.

    Yes, there very much is a Jaunty blacklist.

    I'm almost one hundred percent sure that I gave you the right path, too:
    /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist

    It's just something that doesn't change in the distros and flavours.

    Try checking again.

    Regards.

    EDIT: You have to either use that code, or open it up in a text editor to paste the line in, by the way.

    I have noticed on Jaunty I think the shutdown beep is really loud at least on my latitude 620

    I need to disable mine eventually

    ravica, I am terribly sorry. I completely forgot to put the file extension, and you could have had this solved hours ago.

    Anyway, I'm glad it worked out for you.
