  1. A lot of people prefer to take silent snapshots so as not to interupt events, concerts, meetings with the camera noise. Indeed camera noise can get you ejected from events where silence has been requested. I don't know how to take silent snaps in Viewer 2 as I don't use it. For the older SL viewer 1, Imprudence and Phoenix: In the Advanced menu check "Enable silent snapshot to disk", then under "File" click "Snapshot to Disk"

  2. This wiki page:
    http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Debug_Settings
    gives the current debug settings. What you want is:
    QuietSnapshotsToDisk
