Curious is that inside GNOME I can't get the system beep, e.g.:
echo -e "\a"
Procudes no sound when runned from gnome-terminal but works when I go to
tty1 :-?

Ha! :-)
But this is indeed something coming from GMD (or from the GNOME side)
because I get no beep when I fall into "init 1" and run from there
"shutdown -r now".
