You know, that tiny little irritating beep that appears when typing the Tab or the Backspace keys too many times in the terminal… I was getting sick of hearing this damn sound since I switched back to fluxbox (under gnome, I disabled this in the preferences menu).

Finally, I found this website allowing you to add about any search engine you want, google.be included: mycroft.mozdev.org. Simply add your parameters (country, language, … ) and click on the desired engine to add it to the list. Then select it and start searching!
In my particular case, I had the choice among those search engines.
