hello.

i like selecting text in kde apps using the keyboard
(shift+arrow key) but i cannot use the numpad arrow
keys because in Xfree86, shift+<numpad key> acts like
numlock e.g.:

shift+top_arrow = 8
shift+bottom_arrow = 2
shift+left_arrow = 4
shift+right_arrow = 6

so everytime i go to select text in kwrite, i start
typing numbers instead :(

is there a way of configuring the numpad to work like
it does in windows? i.e.:

arrow_key = movement
shift+arrow_key = select text, not numbers *please*!!!
numlock+arrow_key = numbers
shift+numlock+arrow_key = numbers

other than working supermount this is the last thing i
need before i (and everyone else in my office) can
move to linux, so please are there any suggestions?

thanks
- Will
