[X4U] Kill startup sound on G5

[John McClernan]

I missed the beginning of this thread, so I don't know all the  
details. However, when my baby was sleeping (14 yrs. ago!) in the  
same room as the computer, the startup chime would wake her. I went  
to Radio Shack and bought a cheap plastic 1/8" audio mini-plug  
connector and plugged it into the headphone port of my PM6500. Since  
there was nothing connected to the end of the mini-plug, there was no  
sound at all at startup. It's a cheap, easy solution.
My 2¢.
Cheers,
John
