Back with a CrunchBang #!
WHAT happened to the "p-y-e-o-w-w-w"?
I've lost count of the number of times the sci-fi blaster sound that CrunchBang Linux makes when it starts up has made me - or someone in the room with me - jump.
Now, it makes an equally sci-fi "boop-bleep-bup" sound which is nice, but doesn't have the same dramatic effect of making people duck if your speaker volume is maxed-out.
The laser bomb start-up sound came with version 8.10.01 of CrunchBang Linux which I'm still running on my main desktop PC, while the new triple-beep effect is in the latest version of this outstandingly good Linux distribution, version 9.04.01, which is based on Ubuntu 9.04 'Jaunty'.
