Hello everyone,

I'd like to raise a small UX issue concerning external keyboards on
laptops. Most integrated keyboards I know on laptops don't include a
separate numpad section in contrary to most desktop/external keyboards. Now
to address the issue: I always turn numlock ON on external keyboards (due
to previous statement) and OFF on the laptop. On Fedora 15 (which I tried
to get a first glimpse of GNOME Shell) already has implemented an great
setting to automatically turn on numlock on external keyboards and off on
laptop.

So I know what I'd like is possible, the question is if Ubuntu would change
it's default behaviour for the proposed one.

With metta, Chris
