OpenSUSE :: How To Disable System Bell For All Applications

Sep 2, 2010

I've searched all over Google and searched the forums and I have not been successful in finding out how to disable the System Bell (Beep) computer-wide. It's annoying hearing this extremely loud "BEEP" when I hit backspace one too many times, even when my sound is muted. People look at me like I'm crazy. Even if I try to backspace a non-existent character in my Google Chrome browser, I am struck with a crazy Error Beep. Long story short, how do I disable the System-wide "System Bell" ("BEEP") permanently? I'm on OpenSuse 11.3 using the KDE 4.4.4 Desktop.

Debian Multimedia :: Pulse Doesn't Use Internal PC Speaker To Ring Bell

Jan 13, 2016

Just installed sid on a new system and I'm having a problem with pulseaudio.I have a motherboard with built-in Realtek audio, and the system should use that for everything except the system bell, which goes through the internal PC speaker that's connected to the motherboard.It works that way on the console. If I type C-g in Emacs, the pc speaker beeps, same with bash completion etc, while aplay will play wav files through the external speakers connected to the sound card. It's perfect.

Now in X, pulse doesn't know what to do. It defaults to the external sound card speakers, so they play all "normal" sounds (like music files) but when I type C-g in Emacs, there's a drip sound that comes out of the speakers. The internal PC speaker doesn't beep at all.I'm using GNOME 3, and I like it, so I can't just purge pulse because it wants to take GNOME with it. If I go to setup > sound, "Line Out - Built-in Audio" is selected, but I have another option for "Analog Output - pcsp" ... that's the snd_pcsp module for the internal speaker. If I select that, it plays the same sound files but through the internal speaker. So when I do C-g in emacs, the beep does come from the internal speaker, but it's not the normal beep you hear in the console -- it's actually the same ogg (or wav or whatever) file that makes the drip sound from the speakers! And worse, if I sleect the pcsp option in setup, it uses the internal speaker for EVERYTHING - including playing audio music files, watching YouTube, whatever! And naturally the sound is very horrible and fuzzy.

Is there any way to tell pulse that I want to use my motherboard's soundcard for everything but the beep, just like in the console?

I checked the speakers are not mute, I can play music. Any idea how to fix it?

Slackware :: How To Turn On System Bell In XTerm

Apr 11, 2010

I'm trying to turn on the system bell (pc speaker) in xterm. I have the bell working in console (text mode, not under X), and with X running, even firefox can use the pc speaker (it beeps, when I enter a search term which is not found). Only xterm doesn't seem to work.

Here is my xterm config, and the xset command I'm trying to use to turn the bell on:
-------###--------
xterm*renderFont: true
xterm*faceName: Terminus
xterm*faceSize: 12

xterm*loginShell: true
!xterm*Geometry: 102x48+0+0
xterm*Geometry: 102x48
xterm*scrollBar: false

xterm*background: black
xterm*foreground: white
!xterm*highlightColor: red
xterm*charClass: 46-47:48

xterm*visualBell: false
-------###--------
xset b on
xset bell 100 1000 1000
-------###--------

If I run xterm with the +vb option, it doesn't help either (I'm testing it with printf "a"). What am I missing? How can I make xterm use my pc speaker as bell?

Ubuntu Multimedia :: How To Turn On System Bell / PC Speaker

Mar 2, 2010

This is for all of you who are having problems getting sound out of the PC Speaker, as far as getting the system beep or system bell. In Karmic (9.10), a change was made to get rid of the system beeps and disable the pc speaker. Unfortunately for people who liked (or more likely need) the beeps, the changes occurred in multiple places and are not that easy to find. The pc speaker and beeps were disabled in response to this bug. I believe there were other bugs dealt with here because not everything that was done seems to be covered, if that makes sense.

This bug was created in response, in hope of getting the beeps turned back on. This post by one of the developers has some pretty comprehensive instructions for getting the beep back on. I want to note right now, that I did not have to apply his patch to get the beeps back on where I wanted them. It may already have been included in an update, or was obviated by something else I did. I realize this is pretty fragmented, and you may or may not want or need to go as far as I did with this. When I get a chance to do a new clean install of Karmic (maybe in a vm or something) I intend to go back over these instructions and try to create a synthesis of them that should work for certain. If I can, I'll figure out a way to script it.

One other thing I should point out. I didn't get the bug where I had to reload the pcspkr module on every boot, so that must be fixed. (I did have to remove it from the blacklist so it would be loaded on boot, but I didn't have to kill and reload it or add it to rc.local like some people did in those descriptions). I also did not get the bug of an endless loop of beep sound or multiple beep sounds, but that only happened to people who followed the directions to change the system beep to another sound.

Red Hat :: Putty Drops Connection Intermittently When Using VIM

Aug 17, 2010

Recently, Putty keeps intermittently freezing and locking me out of the system (i.e. I can't stop the session and I can't re-login via ssh again until I've gone to the machine and pressed "reset").

So far, it mostly occurs when opening a file in VIM, but it does sometimes occur when using tab to auto-fill a file or directory name at the command prompt.

Ubuntu Networking :: Server 9.10 Lan Connection Drops ?

Jan 23, 2010

I got a new low power file server (Atom 330 with ion), but didn't enjoy it since.

I installed Ubuntu server 9.10 64bit.

I randomly experience connection drops. As I'm installing and testing, there are lots of ssh windows open, I transfer much data using scp from my laptop to the server (all connected to wired lan).

Connection drops are as follows: ssh windows terminate with "connection reset by peer", but not always all the ssh windows terminate. For example, I edited a mediatomb config using nano, that stayed open even with scp and all other ssh windows cut.

I also have apache2 installed because I'm running urd (a usenet download tool). It seems that when I start the deamon, connection drops. So I killed apache2 to try out but that didn't solve the problem.

I left ping run all the time, and the server is pinging back all the time, which is really strange as I thought that a connection drop means the whole network interface going down.

When this drop occurs, I have to wait 2 minutes until I can ssh back into the server.

I also installed mediatomb, but it isn't really fun to stream a video to my ps3 as it always hangs after 5 to 10 minutes.

Ubuntu Networking :: Wired Connection: WAN Drops But LAN OK

Aug 17, 2010

I've had a computer running Ubuntu connected to my TV for a few weeks now, but as of yesterday, I can't get it to keep a connection to the Internet. Everything works well for an hour or so after a reboot, but then no WAN connections work. When this happens, no sites load in Firefox or Chrome, I can't ping Google, I can't SSH to the box from work, and none of the pages I have running on apache load from remote computers. However, all local area connections seem to work fine. SSH from within my LAN takes much longer than usual, but it does still connect.

Networking :: OpenSwan VPN Drops Connection After 5 To 15 Minutes

Feb 18, 2011

Hello, I've installed OpenSwan with xl2tpd on my server, and set it up for roadwarriors connecting using certificates.

My server is Debian 5.0.8, I am running xl2tpd 1.2.0, and Openswan IPsec 2.4.12, my clients are all Windows, and I am testing my setup on a Windows 7 client.

I have no problem connecting to the server, but after some time the connection drops. I removed the idle option from the ppp config but it does not make any difference.

Even when I create constant traffic with ping -t the connection drops also.

I have no problems reconnecting right away.

I have been hacking at this for a couple of days, reading every post I can find, but I have not found a solution to my problem.

Here are my configs and logs:

CONFIG FILES:

/etc/ppp/option.l2tpd
-----------------------------
ms-dns 10.248.75.4
ms-wins 10.248.75.4
asyncmap 0

Fedora Networking :: Mobile Broadband Drops Connection After 30s

May 8, 2010

I'm having problems with my mobile connection. This has been working fine for months, but in the past few days it has connected OK, I've been able to transfer data, but after 30s the connection closes. Setup is Acer AA1 with F12 connecting via bluetooth to Nokia 3110c on O2.

So to try and figure out what's happening I put the bluetooth dongle in my desktop PC, also running F12, made a connection and again it dropped out after 30s. Then I fired up windows on the AA1 and made a connection using the same dongle, this time it held up OK. This leads me to think that something has changed recently in F12 to upset it.

Ubuntu Networking :: XP Drops Connection To Samba Server

Apr 7, 2010

In order to get my shares working I first have to connect to the windows shares from the Ubuntu machine. Then I can connect to the Samba shares from the windows machine. If I don't continue to use the shares. It'll drop the connection and I have to unmount the windows shares and start the process over. The wireless network still shows as being connected but I get an error on the windows machine if I try to connect. I've Googled this and it appears to be a Windows problem. I know this is a ubuntu forum but thought I'd ask for any info. I believe that this is also what is giving me shared printer issues as well.

Ubuntu Networking :: Wifi Connection Drops On Laptop?

May 1, 2010

I'm having a really strange problem with my wifi connection on my laptop. The ethernet connection works fine and so does the wifi connection - as long as I sit within one meters range from my router! As soon as I take the laptop further away the connection drops. The router is still being found by network-manager and the signal is just below 100%, but when I try to establish a connection it fails.

I'm sitting here on a fresh Ubuntu 10.04 install, and I had exactly the same problem with 9.10. That time I went through a lot of different procedures, and in some strange way the problem was solved. I haven't been that lucky this time though, I've tried reinstalling network-manager, using ndiswrapper, installing the wireless backports package, tried all kinds of drivers.. nothing works.

There shouldn't be any problem with the connection itself; I've had a perfect connection downstairs but now I can't even connect if I stand two metres from the router! Has anyone experienced anything like this and managed to fix it? My wireless card is Atheros AR2413. This is an example from daemon.log

CentOS 5 Networking :: Connection Drops 10 Seconds After Boot / Fix It?

Jun 3, 2010

I have had this issue for a while on my centos 5.4 dedicated server with 1and1. If I reboot my system, my connection starts and then drops in about 10 seconds after the system has booted.I connected through the serial console and noticed there was only one thing that seemed suspicious while booting. named could not start for some reason. So my question is - are these 2 problems related? If not, what could be the reason for my connection to drop?At the moment the only way of getting the connection back up is by running dhclient. This works until the next reboot.

Ubuntu Networking :: Connection Drops Randomly For A Split Second

Jun 5, 2010

I could not find a solution to this problem anywhere. I use a ubuntu server to play (stream) mp3s and movies to other computers on my network. It works most of the time, but sometimes in the middle of a movie or a song it will drop/hiccup--saying it is "not reachable". I am not overtasking the server at all, and merely playing an mp3 that takes up less than 10% of the bandwidth, yet it drops it for a split second.

I have a WRT160N router (DD-WRT of course) with 4 clients connected (2 of which are wired). The ubuntu server is connected via ethernet and all machines have the same issue. It can't be the router because another Windows machine works just fine for streaming these files. I just can't understand how it can lose connection for a second or so. It may just be the file-system or some service that is hiccuping, but I have no idea...

Ubuntu Networking :: Server Drops Connection Momentarily

Dec 30, 2010

I have a server running Ubuntu 10.04. I use it for mysql as well as samba file sharing across 10 computers. It had been working out great. I only ever needed to restart after I would install updates and to sort of thing. Starting this week however, it has started kicking all the computers off of both mysql and the samba shares every few minutes. It is very strange. The mysql connection can be restored just by closing the database and reopening it. The file shares are only a problem if you try to access them though a program other than your file browser (e.g. save a file you are working on in word to the server). The server never shuts down and all services can be reconnected immediately. It is very strange. I do believe that the server installed some automatic updates at the beginning of this week when this all started happening. I am not sure if one of the updates is causing the server to do this or not.

Ubuntu Networking :: Wireless Connection Drops Out After 15 Minutes?

Jun 13, 2011

Having struggled to get the wireless connection at least working I find it drops out after 15 minutes or so. When I check for wireless connections I can see none at all and the "Disable/Enable wireless conncection" has disappeared, the Network one is still there. I get an auto reconnection if I reboot and all is well for another 15 minutes. Is there any way i can recover the situation without a reboot? I am trying to install the hplip-3.11.5 driver for my new wireless printer,the program take a while to install and by the time it has started looking for the printer the connection has dropped out. I can't be sure but I don't think it was dropping out before I connected the printer using my wired pc. All good fun but I'd like to get it sorted so I can get the engine back in my motorbike, the sort of technology I prefer!

General :: FTP Or Rsync Transfer Drops Network Connection

Apr 23, 2011

I'm using Scientific Linux on a laptop, connecting to a debian server on my LAN via a basic BT HomeHub router. When starting a file transfer with ftp or rsync from the laptop my connection is dropped, every time, after a couple of seconds. I have to reset my network adaptor and restart my network manager (wicd in this case) in order to get network connectivity back. I had a very similar problem before - [URL]. On this occasion my workaround was to replace NetworkManager with yast. I am now using SL though so no yast available, and I am not using NetworkManager any more anyway.
