You might want to check for a ``keyboard1'' reference in wscons and try setting bell.volume to 0 for that, if present. # wsconsctl | grep .*.bell.volume= keyboard.bell.volume=50 keyboard1.bell.volume=50 The ``keyboard1'' reference may always have been in there but it was not until recently (on a couple of 5.8 machines I installed) that I had to explicitly set it to mute the keyboard and hence noted it. It had me puzzled for a little while the first time. Regards, Erling
