Hi David,
  Have you checked your ~/.inputrc for any "set bell-style " statements? If you have it set to "set bell-style none" you will not hear the beeps.

Regards
Suresh

In bash, it should be possible for example to do:

echo -e "\a"

and get an audible alert (bell) sound. This does work with bash at work (in a dtterm under Solaris with CDE). I have RedHat 9 with GNOME. What do I do to get the alert sound to work in a gnome-terminal? I do have "GNOME system events" sounds working, if that is relevant.
