Yup, I'm running X. Having the visual bell on or off in my xterms makes
no difference...still no sound.
To see if this is a hardware or software problem, I tried pressing delete
at the PROM prompt. It didn't beep. Should it have? If so, I guess I
can conclude my keyboard's beeper is busted...
Is there anyone out there with a Personal that has gotten it to beep in or
out of X?
