Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gdm
Like most nomad users of laptops, I often end up switching my computer
on in public places. I don't want unexpected sound to be heard. All
sounds in the Gnome desktop are easily deactivated, thanks to the
"Sounds" configuration item.
However, to disable the drums at GDM startup, you had to go to the
"Login screen" configuration item on Jaunty (which wasn't that easy to
find for new users), and it is much worse but in Karmic: gdmsetup had
been stripped down (which is a good thing) and doesn't show the sound
option anymore.
I would vote for simply disabling that sound by default, I can't see any
need for it.
