Did you test if there will be no beep after removing the driver for this PC beep thingy? Removing it might disable the terminal bell and some notification beeps. I guess here it isn't loaded by default, but IIRC the BIOS anyway gives information by beeps.
modprobe -r pcspkr I don't like desktop sample sounds, but sometimes a beep by this beep thingy can be useful. If I should enable beeps and it should be to loud and there shouldn't be a way to make it silent by software, I would use some heat resistant fabric to cover this beep thingy. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
