Every time that I emerge mozilla, it beeps incessantly for many hours until the emerge is complete. This has happened on every box I have compiled mozilla on.
Is this "normal" or is it just my machines?
Is there something that can be done to eliminate this annoyance?
Update: Actually, it is mozilla-firebird that beeps when it is compiled, not mozilla.

Mozilla emerge BEEP
It must be normal because I get it too. I have not found a fix yet.
Thanks for your asistance and constructive criticism.
you can turn off the beeping by doing:

Alternate solution:
1) Unscrew case cover.
2) locate wires from front of case (usually black and red pair) and follow to motherboard.
3) Check that pins lead to by wire are marked "speaker".
4) Grasp said wires leading between said pins and front of case
5) Pull away from motherboard
Works well if you are already part way through your compiling and don't want to restart to prevent the noise.
