Question about nouveau, and also about bell/alert

[Andras Farkas <deepbluemistake%gmail.com@localhost>]

Hello!

Is it normal for nouveau not to work with an Nvidia GTX 970?  I
unfortunately have an Nvidia video card.
I have hardware reports, in case more details are needed:

https://bsd-hardware.info/?probe=8f18868bb4
https://linux-hardware.org/?probe=7a7abd7af2

More importantly, how do I get the alert/bell to work?  It doesn't
work in X11 or at the console.  I've tested with "printf '\a'" just to
be sure.
Not even "xset b on" fixes this.

Thanks for reading.
