I have an old piece of DEC software called 'eXcursion' here, that supposedly
allows me to connect to remote X servers. It makes the same noises you're
talking about. Move the mouse -- noise. Type a char in a terminal -- noise.
Connect to a server -- a 30 minute symphony...
I've been trying to make it stop forever but it doesn't give in...
It's bearable when I have twm as my window manager, but trying anything more
graphicky (i'm not even touching kde/gnome) could make a polar bear run in
circles... Needless to say, my colleagues love me!
