quotes).
The 7.1 kde autostart folder is no longer functional. The new autostart

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

I have 'numlock-1.0-10mdk' which came with my Mandrake 7.2. It does not

Numlock did work in 7.1 Something in 7.2 seems to have broken it.

When you are running 7.1, a program called numlock should be installed.
Add a kdelnk to your autostart for that.

If it's 7.2, a lot of people are reporting the same. The only
