How to turn off the bell sound in ubuntu server?

Question

Please help, I tried the method mentioned on older questions but they seem to be for GUI machines.

Answer 1

In case the sound you mean is not actually a bell (since pure-Terminal installations almost never have something "fancy"), but rather the built-in "PC speaker" (i.e. the annoying beeper), you might want to try the following:

First, unload the pcspkr kernel module (# rmmod pcspkr). If the sound you want gone is indeed gone, you can permanently blacklist it to prevent it from loading on boot:

# echo "blacklist pcspkr" > /etc/modprobe.d/pcspkr.conf
