Comment 14 for bug 77010

I have to say that one of the ridiculously small 12 reasons that led me to abandon Ubuntu (& return to Windows XP, not happily) was the jarring beep described here. It was especially antagonizing when I was playing Solitaire as my last act before heading to bed, using the rote click-click-click to stupefy my attention and relax; except that clicking an already clicked card caused this loud shrieking bleep, which rather defeated the purpose of the game for me.

I only tried 10 or 20 times to figure out how I could fix or change this. Apparently, using GUIs since 1985 was insufficient preparation for smooth Ubuntu use and after twelve months I admitted my Linux devotion was inadequate to the demand for mastering Linux obscurities.
