Title: [SOLVED] Disable pc speaker beeping
Post by: RockHound on October 28, 2007, 01:57:27 pm

How do I disable the "Listening for Button 1" beeps or any PC speaker stuff for that matter? Just remove the module pcspkr? It's really annoying when you are frequently rebooting while testing things.

Any advice is appreciated.

Kind regards,

Martin

You could unclip the PC speaker from the motherboard as a last resort.

I dont have one on my system.

Just a thought for you to consider.

Then I would not have any beeps on post errors ... so I am not considering this.

Thx anyhow.

Those of you looking for a permanent way of doing the above, don't let the system load this module while booting via:

Code: [Select]

sudo echo "blacklist pcspkr" >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
