3259.0. "Strange noise when running eXursion" by HGOVC::MICHAELWAN () Tue Apr 08 1997 15:25

    I am running eXcursion v.2.1 on my desktop and notebook. I use WIN95
    dial-up networking and dial-up to the office. Then I use TCP/IP  to
    access my UNIX machine. Everything is fine on my desktop. I can run all
    Xwindows applications on eXcursion with no problem. 
    
    However, when I use my note book PC (NiNote), the speaker gives out
    strange noise whenever eXcursion does screen display (any slight
    changes). I don't know whether this is the modem's problem or
    eXcursion's. The problem never occur with other applications such as
    Netscape or Exchange.
    
    On my desktop PC, I am using a Hayes Compatible modem with speed 28800
    bps. Everything is fine.
    
    On my notebook PC, I am using a PCMCIA US Robotics Sportster 33600
    modem. In this case, eXcursion gives me strange noise. BTW, the
    notebook PC has no sound card and I cannot disable the speaker.

    Turn off Maestro in the "Network Monitors" menu off of the eXcursion
    icon.  Maestro beeps the speaker every time there is X window protocol
    activity on the wire.
