Yes that command does enable it you must has missed an earlier post, what
the problem I am trying to figuefigure out is to do it automatically, I am using
a rather rudimentary way where the numlock behavior in
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb/types/basic is changed so that while numlock light
is off but numlock is really one. This is not what I want, it would be
nice to get the damn numlock program actually working the way it used to
in 7.1, I even got the cooker numlock pkg numlock-1.0-11mdk and that
didn't fix it. Why did they fix what wasn't broken in earlier
distros? Could you just take a look at your /etc/sysconfig/NumLock and see
what it says? Mine is empty I don't know if its supposed to be or what I
ma trying to fix what they screwed up here but I am at a lost as to what
to try next??????
