[Bug 92482] Re: NumLock gets enabled unexpectedly on my laptop

 

I have a similar problem, and knowing how to trigger and cure it may (or
may not) help some of you.

 ET Wolfenstein (game) doesn't properly work with my azerty keyboard, so before launching it I execute
xmodmap with a different layout file. After exiting, I want to restore the keyboard layout with:

xmodmap /usr/share/xmodmap/xmodmap.be

And then I have the problem some of you have: numlock will no longer
work, nor will the arrow keys. In fact, no matter what keymap I select,
I get that problem.

Oddly, what solved it for me is :
system > preferences > keyboard  > layouts > layout options

*Anything* I change there instantly solves it, even if I change "adding
eurosign" settings or something. The numock light goes on again, and
works again, as do arrow keys.

Its quite possible Im doing something wrong, but I thought it might help
track this problem.
