Hi, I installed FreeBSD 5.1 with a new kernel (here I only added options VGA_WIDTH90). I want do disable the PC's internal beep, so I added from man rc.conf this to rc.conf: keybell="off". After rebooting I was not able to type in anything with my keyboard at the login - there was absolutely no funtionality (it was dead). Deleting the keybell entry in my rc.conf (via the livesystem CD and the option FIxIt) made the keyboard work again. Can someone point me to the solution of this problem or to some documentation because I am not able to find anything helpfull. Here is my rc.conf file: font8x8="iso15-8x8" font8x14="iso15-8x14" font8x16="iso15-8x16" hostname="bob.bob.de" ifconfig_rl0="inet 10.100.100.1 netmask 255.255.255.0" inetd_enable="YES" kern_securelevel_enable="NO" allscreens_flags="VGA_90x25" keymap="german.iso" linux_enable="YES" moused_enable="YES" saver="daemon" scrnmap="NO" sendmail_enable="YES" sshd_enable="YES" usbd_enable="YES" keybell="off". P.S.: Do disable the beep I set in my .cshrc this: set nobeep But I want to disable generally. Thanx in advance Oliver -- ... don't touch the bang bang fruit
