Disable startup sounds

[WineCurmudgeon]

Can't find how to do it after searching here and elsewhere, though there are instructions for Mate. Is it possible to do this in Cinnamon on 13?

Do you mean any sounds run by the system or Grub boot beeps or grub selection beeps..

menu >administration >login window > accessibility tab

Not beeps, but the jingle.

And no matter how hard I try and how many different menus I use, I can't get Adminstration to come up on the Cinnamon menu editor. It just says System tools.

Are you accessing the menu editor by right-clicking on the Menu button? That activates Cinnamon's native editor, which doesn't show all the menu options.

Go to the Preferences catagory and open Main Menu. That starts the alacarte editor, the usual GNOME menu editor.

The two editors don't cooperate with each other very well.

No luck. Had to use synaptic to install alacarte, and then I ran it through the command line and still didn't see what I needed.

I guess I'll have to live with the sounds. Thanks for your help.

I used following:

Menu=> Administration=> Login Window=> Accessibility Tab.....change start-up sound.

Hope that works

Doesn’t work for me, neither in LM13 nor in 14. Anything else I can try?
