An upgrade to Intrepid has re-enabled the 'bell' or 'beep' when clicking 'Shutdown' or at the login screen. There is no way in the GUI or standard Gnome settings to reset this (none that work, anyway). The only way to disable it again is:
run gconf-editor from terminal and set /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/bell_mode to 'off' rather than 'on' Not exactly easy to find for your experienced users, impossible for the average user. At the very least this should setting should be migrated during an upgrade, but should really be editable from the Sound properties tab. This is an upgrade of Intrepid on an Asus EEE 701.
