[Desktop-packages] [Bug 877456] Re: Who cares about num lock?
I agree, I *never* use the numpad for its cursor keys. It's a numpad after all. And seeing that warning I always first think capslock is on. BTW: Now it seems that also lightDM, ssh-add and gpg-agent seem to be affected by this, which becomes really annoying (but also possibly simpler to fix, since it appears that this is a GTK+ issue rather than an issue of the individual applications). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-screensaver in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/877456 Title: Who cares about num lock? Status in “gnome-screensaver” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: The gnome screensaver is the only application I have ever used, ever, that thinks that num lock being on is something I should be warned about when entering a password. This seems pointless as people generally do not change num lock during computer use, or if they do, it's not to the frequency of using caps lock. Further, numlock being off, which appears to be the preferred state because that removes the warning, is an old-school habit, increasingly unusual. Please remove this warning. It is warning against the normative state, and it doesn't provide useful information. It's just screen clutter.
