Public bug reported: The system beep in Intrepid no longer works. Scrolling “past” the beginning of a buffer in Emacs, typing an invalid key combination, prompting for tab completion in the shell, and several other instances where the system would give you a nice beep no longer function. It does not matter if X is running by default. This is on a stock Intrepid install, fully updated as of 2008-Oct-04 12:53 -0400.
Insmod'ing the PC Speaker ALSA driver of course does not fix the issue. It would also appear that the pcspkr driver which handles beeping has gone away. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- [Intrepid] System Beep no longer functions https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/278209 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
