Re: [Bug 197589] Re: Numeric keypad no longer works after upgrade
This bug only occurs with USB keyboard. my ps2 keyboard does not suffer from this issue. The exact problem is that the usb keyboards's numlock state cannot be changed via usb keyboard. ps2 keyboard can enable usb keyboard numlock mode.

I have to toggle several times and beat up the keyboard to get it to work correctly. There is an issue with the mapping perhaps or something more, I have not had time to fully look into it myself but I know it's rather annoying. -- Numeric keypad no longer works after upgrade https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/197589 You received this bug notification because you are a direct subscriber of the bug.

Re: [Bug 197589] Re: Numeric keypad no longer works after upgrade
this is a direct bug. no settings config can fix it. it is a problem with(microsoft? usb)? keyboards on the latest released version of ubuntu On Mon, Feb 23, 2009 at 4:54 PM, Bryce Harrington br...@bryceharrington.org wrote: [Not sure why this is assigned to -keyboard; an explanation would help.

Re: [Bug 197589] Re: Numeric keypad no longer works after upgrade
Hi If the number keys move the mouse arrow, then try Shift-NumLock to switch to the normal behaviour (entering numbers with NumLock on or cursor keys with NumLock off).

Re: [Bug 197589] Re: Numeric keypad no longer works after upgrade
Hello, The solution you posted works, temporairly only. For some reason for me the box gets checked on its own. This is on 2 computers, one upgraded to Hardy, the other a fresh install of Hardy. --- Blempis [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I have two desktop computers. Both upgrades from 7.10 to 8.04 were painful. Normal internet upgrade failed during the install process and cd-upgrade's automatic option didn't work either. A dialog will be displayed offering you the opportunity to upgrade using that CD. - Ubuntu If the upgrade dialog is not displayed for any reason, you may also run the following command using Alt+F2: Not so straight work flow even here. A message popped up claiming that cd is not mounted, which it surely was. After remounting system seemed to hang but the announcement was hidden. It was under all the other windows but nothing indicated that it even exists. Next step was to realize that cd-upgrade is defenately not going to do anything nor it is giving any instructions. The lacking piece of advise was that cd should be added to one's download sources. After that and number of error pop-ups everything seemed to be ok, but my numpad stopped responding. As I mentioned, all this happened during both hardy upgrades. Solution (which is surely not intuitive) was this already mentioned one: 1. Go to System Preferences Accessibility Keyboard Accessibility 2. Select [x] Enable keyboard accessibility features 3. Go to the tab Mouse Keys and deselect [ ] Enable keyboard accessibility features. - Ubuntu - rather stable if not upgraded to LTS. -- Numeric keypad no longer works after upgrade https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/197589 You received this bug notification because you are a direct subscriber of the bug. -- Numeric keypad no longer works after upgrade https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/197589 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
