Re: FreeBSD compile with VT / Newcons... can we disable the "bell" / "beep" hardware sound?

No worries, also found this (after reading kbdcontrol man page and
/etc/defaults/rc.conf):

keybell="NO" # See kbdcontrol for options.  Use "off" to disable.
allscreens_kbdflags="" # Set this kbdconrol mode for all virtual screens

Just tough I should share, I can someone bumps to this, and want to know
how to setup it auto on system start!

Once more thanks for sharing the info about kbdcontrol.
