I've tried a Karmic Live CD on my desktop machine. I get the system beep coming out of the motherboard speaker after a single modprobe pcspkr, whether in X or at a virtual terminal. For obvious reasons, I can't un-blacklist the module, so I can't say whether the behavior would be different if the module was loaded during boot. Did you notice any difference between those two cases, or did you always have the beep come out of your soundcard after the first (and only the first) time pcspkr was loaded? I also haven't noticed any delay or dropping of system bell events (weird thing #1 from post #20) after the first time pcspkr is loaded. My strong suspicion that your problems with pcspkr behaving oddly on the first load is a hardware-related bug. As you point out, it's certainly widespread. But this is the one problem that is not behaving the same for everyone, at least as far as I can tell. -- System beep broken in Karmic despite heroic efforts to fix it https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/486154 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
