Actually, after some tests, (1) is unrelated. On one machine, gdm3 no longer beeps even though I have /desktop/gnome/sound/event_sounds true in /etc/gdm3/greeter.gconf-defaults and I do not use "xset -b" (e.g. the beep works in Emacs). "gconftool -g /desktop/gnome/sound/event_sounds" outputs false, so that there may be something else. I'm happy with that, though. -- Vincent Lefèvre <[email protected]> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <http://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / Arénaire project (LIP, ENS-Lyon) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
