The bell issue was, as far as I could tell, constrained to
gnome-terminal. I tracked the bell call back to third/gtk/gdk/gdk.c.
Here, XBell is called with percent 100. In x11r6 xterm
(/mit/x11r6/src/xc/programs/xterm) it is called with percent 0.
Here is a patch which changes this (yeah, its only one line, but I
figured I would send a patch anyways). I have not tested the patch. If
it won't get applied unless I test it, then I can probably find time
at some point in the next couple of weeks. But I figured someone with
a working system would be able to test it much faster.
