FWIW, Lenovo offers a Scroll Lock Indicator Utility for Windows machines (dunno 'bout Linux). While it doesn't shut it off, it will place a visual indicator in the system tray. While more noticable than the itty-bitty ScrLck light on my keyboard, I think a USB-powered Xenon flashbulb would be better. Or maybe some sort of klaxon. Or an electrical shock applied to the buttocks. Or an audible warning. Or shut off the display. Sometimes negative reinforcement works a treat. When it comes to Scroll Lock, I'll take whatever help They offer. Alan Altmark z/VM Development IBM Endicott
