If you using bash, I sometime know about a variable (named *BELL* or
something matching it...) who let you choose the *right* behavioyur. Maybe
they're some like in tcsh. Elsewhere, you can use screen as I do for most
of my console session. It provides multiple windows screen session,
hardcopy and let you choose between none-visual-or-sound bell.


I think that's more simple then to patch the kernel.. ;-)

Ciao!
