It used to be part of the rc scripts. I have this in my list, but my gentoo
installation is rather old:
# rc-update -s -v | grep numlock
numlock |
You could check if it is enabled on any runlevel and if yes, then 'rc-update
delete numlock' should get rid of it. Of course if it is not enabled then I
would be also perplexed how we are supposed to manage it these days.
