A few people confirmed that their system always sends keycode 87 for keypad 1/End, independently of NumLock's state. They don't face this bug.
I've connected an external keyboard to my laptop and that one also always sends 87, as opposed to the built-in one. Really looks like we're facing some broken keyboards. Anyway, X's behavior is still not reasonable. When NumLock is on, changing the layout and then pressing a modifier shouldn't trigger the keyboard's brain-damaged "geez, NumLock went off, let me alter the keycodes" mode, since NumLock didn't turn off at all. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1247668 Title: NumLock turned off on layout switch To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xorg-server/+bug/1247668/+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
