At the moment I can not examine the bug on the machine (the Fujitsu- Siemens notebook) on which I originally reported it. Such testing would require to install the new system on the machine's hard drive. Once I can do the installation I will send the apport info. (Perhaps in few weeks.)
Now I can at least say that: 1.) After some time I found a simple treatment of the issue: if the keyboard gets mixed, just press three specific keys at the same time: Shift Fn Insert/Num (which is in effect just NumLock on the notebook). It helps at least on ubuntu 11.04 (Natty) with classic GNOME 2 which presently runs on the Fujitsu-Siemens. 2.) The bug does not affect my new HP ZBook 15 machine with the 64-bit ubuntu 13.10 running. Hence most likely the latest development version of ubuntu is also OK in this respect. 3.) There is still a small NumLock issue on the HP for which I will likely file in a separate report (issues with LED light indication both on the notebook and on the attached USB keyboard). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-evdev in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/662933 Title: keyboard mapping mixed up upon pressing NumLock To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-evdev/+bug/662933/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
