[00:49] <kellydays> On September 3rd 1939, the Allies declared war on Germany, leading to the subsequent half a decade long world war. Before Chamberlain died he revealed America and World Jews forced Britain into war against Germany (mentioned in The Forrestal Diaries from 1945.)
[00:54] <Wayward_Vagabond> is there a way to see what programs have made sound recently and possibly mute them?
[00:54] <Wayward_Vagabond> Something keeps making random beeps at random intervals
[00:55] <mrkramps> Wayward_Vagabond, terminal bell using the pc speaker?
[00:56] <Wayward_Vagabond> I've never heard these beeps before though
[00:57] <Wayward_Vagabond> Is there a way I could manually try and tirgger a bell to compare?
[00:57] <Wayward_Vagabond> *trigger
[00:57] <mrkramps> i guess there is a simple cli tool named beep
[00:58] <mrkramps> or try :$ printf "\a"
[00:58] <Wayward_Vagabond> Installed beep, it had no effect when ran
[00:59] <mrkramps> output of:$ lsmod | grep pcspkr
[01:00] <Wayward_Vagabond> That returned no output
[01:00] <mrkramps> hmkay, so it is not the pc speaker
[01:01] <Wayward_Vagabond> Hrm, actually how hard would it be to enable the terminal beep? It'd be kinda neat for irssi to be able to request my attention, that is is xubuntu has provisions for per-program muting
[01:03] <mrkramps> you could check pavucontrol if pulseaudio lists playback
[01:03] <mrkramps> devices
[01:03] <Wayward_Vagabond> Huh, I just noticed update manager is pestering me again, could that be related?
[01:04] <mrkramps> i am not aware of a sound theme used in xubuntu
[01:05] <Wayward_Vagabond> It may be a website then
[01:05] <mrkramps> using firefox?
[01:05] <Wayward_Vagabond> Though I have adblock, and nothing is running flash
[01:05] <Wayward_Vagabond> yes
[01:05] <mrkramps> firefox in recent versions have a volume icon on tabs with audio
[01:05] <mrkramps> --have ++has
[01:06] <mrkramps> at least iirc
[01:06] <mrkramps> on some operting systems?
[01:07] <mrkramps> oh, yt was muted ^^
[01:07] <mrkramps> it definitely has this icon on all systems
[01:20] <Wayward_Vagabond> It did it again! D:
[01:21] <Wayward_Vagabond> mrkramps: it does for me, but it's only there /when/ the tab is making noise
[01:22] <Wayward_Vagabond> It's a breif beep, sometimes a single tone or sometimes 3 quick ones
[01:22] <Wayward_Vagabond> It doesn't let you know a tab has something capable of noise production
[01:23] <mrkramps> weird
[01:25] <mrkramps> and you're absolutely sure it is your computer beeping?
[01:29] <Wayward_Vagabond> Yes
[01:30] <mrkramps> from the speaker/headset?
[01:30] <Wayward_Vagabond> It's playing over my speaker setup, two subs and 4 satelites aimes at me, quite easy to localize
[01:30] <Wayward_Vagabond> *aimed
[01:30] <mrkramps> do you have another desktop environment installed alongside xfce?
[01:30] <Wayward_Vagabond> I know all the sounds my phone could make, it;s not them, plus it's in the other room turned off
[01:30] <Wayward_Vagabond> negative
[01:31] <mrkramps> is it a laptop?
[01:32] <Wayward_Vagabond> I have a few file manager instances open, xarchiver, a couple document viewer, irssi in screen, and fx
[01:32] <Wayward_Vagabond> running right now
[01:32] <Wayward_Vagabond> Yes, laptop
[01:33] <mrkramps> hm, battery maybe?
[01:33] <Wayward_Vagabond> Plugged in, and power manager never makes sounds
[01:34] <Wayward_Vagabond> Just the noise of everything spinning down followed by no background noise when it runs out of juice
[01:35] <mrkramps> Wayward_Vagabond, are you running Irssi with sound notifier?
[01:37] <Wayward_Vagabond> no
[01:38] <Wayward_Vagabond> And the beeps have no correlations with hilites
[01:39] <mrkramps> Wayward_Vagabond, your laptop's brand and model?
[01:40] <Wayward_Vagabond> HP Pavilion G7
[01:40] <Wayward_Vagabond> Never heard hardware sounds other than a beep at startup and the fan
[01:46] <mrkramps_> Wayward_Vagabond, do you have a builtin modem
[01:48] <Wayward_Vagabond> no
[01:49] <mrkramps> internet says it might be the harddrive oO
[01:50] <mrkramps> you could run a hdd check with smartmontools
[01:53] <mrkramps> Wayward_Vagabond, does this sound similar? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_f1RUdpKi4
[01:56] <mrkramps> same here, different model: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=svvZ70_H2wM
[02:24] <Wayward_Vagabond> No, and no
[02:24] <Wayward_Vagabond> The latter one is a windows noise I think
[02:25] <Wayward_Vagabond> During the breif time I had vista on a different machine, it did that all the time
[18:46] <Wayward_Vagabond> Guise, I figured out my mystery beeping
[18:47] <Wayward_Vagabond> A script on a website was automatically updating it's tabs with new info, and making a beep every time it did so
[21:23] <eatonone> The very latest from Scott Roberts: "IN SEARCH OF A CURE" http://www.renegadetribune.com/scott-roberts-search-cure/
[21:32] <hoshi> it went fast http://i.imgur.com/kIk0NkB.png
[21:32] <hoshi> see bar
[21:33] <hoshi> it supposed to be black, it got buggy, idk if the update or gtk-chtheme broke that
[21:42] <hoshi> ok it went buggy due to gtk-chtheme
[21:42] <hoshi> any idea how to fix the settings (it doesnt change gtk only minor things)
[21:43] <knome> maybe ask the developer of gtk-chtheme?
