Credits

This tool is greatly inspired from

• Michaël Bitard works (tmux conf, bash aliases, ansible base)
• Development environment setup and good practices @ LivingObjects

Classical manjaro installation steps done after the core install :

Disable speaker

sudo rmmod pcspkr
sudo echo blacklist pcspkr >> /etc/modprobe.d/nobeep.conf

The second line may not work with the following error:

-bash: /etc/modprobe.d/nobeep.conf: Permission denied

Why ? Because the command behind the redirection '>>' is done as a regular user. Then you need to execute this instead:

sudo sh -c "echo 'blacklist pcspkr' >> /etc/modprobe.d/nobeep.conf"

OR

echo 'blacklist pcspkr | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/nobeep.conf

'tee' command is very powerful for this kind of works. It reads data from stadard input and write to standard output and files.
