It's quite common for laptops to have the system/motherboard beep volume in the "regular" mixer, since it goes through the same speakers. Since a few kernel releases there is also a new "Digital" control, that seems to be a software emulated system beep, that goes through the sound card. A bit redundant for laptops, but might be useful for desktops (or very annoying). > It should be nice to completely disable that beep sound when restarting > without disturbing the beep volume level, if someone has a clue, please > tell :-) Hack gdm? :p Regards, Andrei -- Offtopic discussions among Debian users and developers: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/d-community-offtopic
