alright in recent trials I'm beginning to believe that this is a hardware conflict probably the intel hd audio card it seems like we all have the same audio card. removing the splash comment in grub fixes the issue.
u...@local-host:~$ sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst <CODE>title Ubuntu 8.10, kernel 2.6.27-11-generic uuid 350e9591-f15d-4764-a69c-272e95287576 kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.27-11-generic root=UUID=350e9591-f15d-4764-a69c-272e95287576 ro quiet initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.27-11-generic quiet</CODE> I have found this problem on 8.10 64 bit and 32 bit it seems to happen more frequently on the 64 bit and even happens during live cd install on the 64 bit but does not happen on the 32 bit live cd install. simply remove the splash at the end of the kernel line. This stops the horrible beeping noise and a number of other unusual problems. It would be nice to pin point this to a specific piece of hardware, We all seem to be having this problem with newer hardware so lets see if we can't figure out what's going on. I'm attaching my lspci -vvn file compare your hardware compliment and lets see if we can make this stop on process of elimination. I have the same beeping noise even when booting into the install screen on the live CD which uses the usplash interface. ** Attachment added: "lspci.txt" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/22611601/lspci.txt -- regression: usplash causes system to beep aloud https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/279187 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
