Can anyone tell me what command I can enter, if the is such a command to see what commands the system is running, specifically when a new email arrives, the command that plays the sounds, I want to track it down so I can try to make it play the only once, not twice as it always has been. Anyone got any ideas?

I have no idea, I just want to ultimately track down the command that makes the email sound play so I can find what ever kind of configuration file or whatever it might be that I need to change to get it to play only once. Are you saying that if i type ps into xterm it will monitor commands as they are executed or what?

top monitors the running processes. If you're interested in what config files a process reads, you could look for open files with lsof, or use strace (I think it's available somewhere for the NITs) to trace the kernel calls. Warning: strace produces tons of output and it's not easy to find the information you're looking for in the trace.

I cant find anything when it lists the commands about the modest sound file being played. Anyone have any idea where a configuration file that might contain said commands would be located?

It's in the modest source itself (http://repository.maemo.org/pool/dia...08.43-1.tar.gz). Modest does not run an external program to play the sound, and nor does it have a configurable option for how many times to play the sound.

From modest-1.0-2008.43\src\maemo\modest-platform.c:

Code:
			hildon_play_system_sound (MODEST_NEW_MAIL_SOUND_FILE);
...
				notify_notification_set_hint_string(NOTIFY_NOTIFICATION (notification),
								    "sound-file", MODEST_NEW_MAIL_SOUND_FILE);
Those are the lines of code that cause modest to play the sound. Have fun recompiling. =)

Rename your favorite wave file to ui-new_email.wav and put it in the /usr/share/sounds folder.

See "modest_platform_push_email_notification" and "modest_platform_on_new_headers_received" in modest-platform.c.
