No, makes no difference because I don't have /etc/sysconfig/numlock and
it works for me here.

But I found something else:

/etc/X11/xdm/Xsetup_0 shows:
if [ -x /etc/X11/xinit.d/numlock ]; then
     /etc/X11/xinit.d/numlock &

And /etc/X11/xinit.d/numlock shows:
if [-f /var/lock/subsys/numlock -a -x   \
/usr/X11R6/bin/enable_X11_numlock]; then
   /usr/X11R6/bin/enable_X11_numlock
fi

Bah, another place to search for the solution....

To me this is of rather academical interest. I boot my desktop maybe
once a month and all I have to do to set numlock is to push a single key
button. What do you think, how much fat will I burn, pushing this button
12 times a year?

On laptops which are normally booted much more often numlock doesn't
matter because it's off all the time.
