Yes. That was what i was trying to accomplish. According to the debian reference guide you can stop the beeping by adding set bell-style none to the inputrc file. I tried that but vi and man kept on beeping. Adding the same command to my own bash and inputrc file didn't help. That's why i was trying the setterm -blength 0 command. My computer room is next to our bedroom so when my wife is asleep, the beeper *really* needs to shutup :-) > > -blength [0-2000] > Sets the bell duration in milliseconds. > Without an argument, > defaults to 0. > > cant see how thats connected to your disappearing s's > > > Commenting that line out solved the whole > > problem. > how stange! Well, i tested this again and it's connected to that line. I've put the "setterm -blength 0" command in the /etc/inputrc file, saved and then logged in. My s was gone again. I removed the line, exit, logged in again. s key worked again. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
