[Desktop-packages] [Bug 632341] Re: Num Lock is not activated by default at GDM
Still a problem with 11.10 release. Still a package to install and a(nother) config file to edit. Still not new user friendly. Still a boring moment to do it. Choosing if numlock is on or off at startup is not important. Many want it and many others doesn't want it. What's important is to have the choice to choose between on and off. Actually you don't have the choice out of the box. I'm sure having numlockx installed + a toggle button in some keyboard configuration panel could be enough for many. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gdm in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/632341 Title: Num Lock is not activated by default at GDM Status in GDM: The Gnome Display Manager: New Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts: Incomplete Status in “gdm” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: gdm This is a pretty trivial bug, but it may be a candidate for future a 100 papercuts cycle.

The 11.10 release of Ubuntu saw GDM replaced with LightDM. Does this problem still exist in the latest release? (I don't have a number pad on my keyboard to test this out). ** Changed in: hundredpapercuts Status: Triaged = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gdm in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/632341 Title: Num Lock is not activated by default at GDM Status in GDM: The Gnome Display Manager: New Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts: Incomplete Status in “gdm” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: gdm This is a pretty trivial bug, but it may be a candidate for future a 100 papercuts cycle.
