Hi!

I would like to blacklist the 'pcspkr' module. It is responsible for
making the old-style 'PC speaker' work. On some computers, having the
module loaded means loud beep at bootup, shutdown and when using the
console.

The idea is already to start Tails with a muted soundcard. Does anyone
see a reason not to kill the 'PC speaker' as well?

Implementation is straightforward, it's a new file in
/etc/modprobe.d/no-pcspkr.conf with:

    blacklist pcspkr


(I'll push that change after 0.13 is released if no one cares.)
