So you decided that you qualify for the "hardcore-geek" category, eh? Okay, then first you should confirm that you hear the two beeps when you see the message "PCMCIA found, starting cardmgr." If yes, then the beeps were emitted inside the script /etc/init.d/knoppix-autoconfig. Specifically, it should be within this section of the script
Code Sample | modprobe pcmcia_core >/dev/null 2>&1 modprobe yenta_socket >/dev/null 2>&1 || modprobe i82365 >/dev/null 2>&1 || modprobe tcic >/dev/null 2>&1 if [ "$?" = "0" ]; then echo " ${GREEN}PCMCIA found, starting cardmgr.${NORMAL}" modprobe ds >/dev/null 2>&1 cardmgr >/dev/null 2>&1 && sleep 4

So you see that there are 5 modules being probed before the program "cardmgr" is called. Better add cardmgr as a suspect, too. You have to narrow down your suspects by adding "echo" and "sleep" commands strategically inside this script. Then remaster the DSL iso with the new /KNOPPIX/KNOPPIX file containing this edited knoppix-autoconfig script. Monitor very carefully where the two beeps occur.
Once you have the suspect pinned down, you need to get the source code for that module, search its guts for anything that says printf() or putc() or whatever that involves the BELL character 0x07. Remove them, recompile the modules, put them inside the KNOPPIX/KNOPPIX file, and remaster the DSL iso.
So you think you can handle it from here, eh?
