Linux defaults to numlock off when it boots, irregardless of what the BIOS does. It bites me too, and I have a largely stock slink install (updated X11 + security updates + Y2K updates) The only solution I have is to turn on the numlock before I do anything. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Phil Brutsche [EMAIL PROTECTED] "There are two things that are infinite; Human stupidity and the universe.
