Hi, The terminal bell in GNOME seems to have vanished after I upgraded by FC2 system to FC3. First of all, this isn't anything to do to with the pcspkr kernel module. It's loaded and the pc speaker is working. If I go to the console (outside X - control-alt-F1) and type: echo -e "\a" I get the usual beep. If I do it within GNOME terminal, nothing... or rather GNOME *will* flash the screen if I set visual beep, but it won't use the PC speaker any longer. Why? I've checked GNOME Terminal menu -> Edit current profile -> "Terminal bell", and it is ticked. Gnome Control Center -> Sound -> System Bell -> "Sound an audible bell" is also ticked. But nothing works. I've tried all options -- if I set the visual feedback, then the screen will flash... but no beep. Are there any other settings I've missed or is this just a very irritating bug in GNOME (I used the beep as feedback when navigating command history or editing command lines). Thanks.
