Trouble with "system" bell

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



I'm on a macbook, so there's no true system bell - I've installed xbelld to replace it. Unfortunately, I still get no bell in terminal (rxvt or xterm or st, using "echo -e \\a" or ^G or ^H^H^H), although running 'xkbbell' does give me the bell.

Searching online, I find this: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=883917#p883917 which seems similar (I tried chromium, and I do indeed get a bell there), but the solution of "just use the system bell" won't work for me. The visualBell effect works, but that's not what I'm looking for.

Any tips on what's keeping the bell from being played from terminal? I've tried "xset b" stuff, and I'm out of ideas.
