My numpad keys don't seem to be recognized by awesome wm (I've tried using KP_0 through KP_9 - like xev reports) as well as names like KP_HOME, with no effect. Remapping same function to something like modkey +"y" works fine. I'm also confused because I don't see much info about this online aside from a thread or 2 claiming that what I'm doing should work: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.window-managers.awesome/3101
Here is one example: awful.key({ modkey, }, "KP_1", function (c) naughty.notify({title='foo',text='dd'}) end), Thanks, here is my version info: $ awesome -v awesome v3.5.6 (For Those About To Rock) • Build: Jan 14 2015 20:56:29 for x86_64 by gcc version 4.8.2 (buildd@lgw01-04) • Compiled against Lua 5.1.5 (running with Lua 5.1) • D-Bus support: ✔
