The beep signals when the machine goes to sleep or wakes up. Maybe it can be controlled with nvsetvol (only in powerpc-utils as of testing) like the startup boing sound? > the white light turns on, but I can't wake it up no more, have to do a reset > :-(( Have you followed all advice from this list about what options to use, what modules to unload, etc. ? > by the way, putting the box to sleep seems to unload usb support or > something. > I do have a logitech mouse conected, and its light turns of when i the book > goes sleeping... any hints?
