I just got my first Mac (Intel chipset), and I am very pleased with it (well, I had used a PowerBook G5 for a year+ at my previous job, but it was the company's).
I have just one problem -- I was setting up bootcamp this morning (so I can load Linux and Winblows to continue development on some of my projects) while my wife was asleep, and the darn boot chime kept coming from the internal speakers and waking her up. Good thing she can sleep in after I leave -- I will have to do something nice for her since she was very nice about being woken up (and only gave me one black eye... kidding).
I have tried multiple things (many google searches) including plugging in headphones to the headphone jack in the front as well as plugging in speakers to the back (and both at the same time) with no change. I also tried a program called Psst which didn't do anything at all.
I would rather have the chime re-routed to headphones if at all possible rather than disabling or muting it since I hear it is often used for boot-up diagnosis.
any help from ye OS X gurus would be welcome
btw, moderators... I was pretty sure this was a software issue and should go under this forum, but I was not positive. Please move if necessary.
