The way I got round it was to install or make sure the numlock RPM was
installed (can't remember which now)
Then I went into the Autostart folder :-
/home/.kde/Autostart and created a new Application - set permissions to RWX
for user and "execute" is simply /usr/X11R6/bin/enable_X11_numlock

Hi:
I am having a shut down issue with my machine running Mandrake 7.2. This
is what is happening. After I hit the shut down button, Mandrake begins
a shut down sequence. And the machine actually beeps stating that it's
shutting down but immediately after it shuts down, it auto reboots itself.
Dear All, I have brought this up before but have not found a way to
remedy this. I have Linux-Mandrake 7.2 with KDE2. I have gnapster which
works well however none of the mp3 players work right. I do not think
that it is the players since the music problem of waving in and out is
the same in all
I have 'numlock-1.0-10mdk' which came with my Mandrake 7.2. It does not
work on my Mandrake 7.2 installation in kde. I also installed the numlock
from the 7.2 set of CDs and it made no difference.
Numlock did work in 7.1 Something in 7.2 seems to have broken it.
