I can tell you it's the same with SuSE. Even with numlock on in BIOS, it will not have numlock on when it boots. The following is a suggestion I have encountered several times when this question comes up. I myself have never tried it. Add these two lines to your /etc/profile: # Set keyboard leds /usr/bin/setleds -D +num -caps -scroll This doesn't exactly boot with NumLock on, but it should be activated on login. Another option: Mandrake has a program called numlock that is supposed to activate this for you. In my case, however, using Mandrake 7.2, it never seems to work. *************************************************** Powered by SuSE Linux 7.3 Professional KDE 2.2.1 KMail 1.3.1 This is a Microsoft-free computer Bryan S.
