i was messing around with forwarding ports with connectbot (android app) and
all of a sudden my computer started making this loud beep - solid beep. it's
still going on now and it's quite distracting. i don't see a pc speaker
module loaded and this is the the only log entry that was around when it
started:

/sbin/init: ELF 64-bit LSB shared object, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV),
dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.15, stripped
now, this machine is a sql and web server. i don't even have xwindows
running on it right now, so any suggestions of modules to kill make this
stop or any logs that i might send for what might be causing this or how to
make this stop...... i can't really think with this noise, so i might be
missing something - let me know.
