[Desktop-packages] [Bug 192508] Re: mouse keys too easy to accidently turn on
There seems to be something missing from my edit of comment #111 so Although the shortcut of Shift+NumLock still exists in the current development release (impish) there has been no comment from anyone affected by this issue in the last eight days since my comment #111. Also, as there has been no discussion regarding this issue for over seven years now I'm closing this bug report with a status of "Opinion" as it is not something that seems to have affected any users in that time. ** No longer affects: hundredpapercuts ** Changed in: xorg-server (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Opinion ** Changed in: vino Status: Incomplete => Opinion ** Changed in: gnome-control-center Status: Incomplete => Opinion ** Changed in: xorg-server Status: Incomplete => Opinion -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/192508 Title: mouse keys too easy to accidently turn on Status in gnome-control-center: Opinion Status in vino: Opinion Status in X.Org X server: Opinion Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu: Opinion Bug description: I am using Hardy Heron and several times now I have tried to use my number pad only to discover that they now move the mouse.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 192508] Re: mouse keys too easy to accidently turn on
This bug report obviously refers to changing a setting in the version of GNOME in use at the time this bug report was raised. In a much more up-to-date version of gnome-control-center I see a switch that has to be moved in 'Settings | Accessibility | Pointing and Clicking' in order to enable 'Mouse Keys'. So not an easy option to turn on. Does this bug report have any relevance in any currently supported release of Ubuntu bearing in mind that over 13 years have elapsed since it was raised? ** Changed in: hundredpapercuts Status: Confirmed => Incomplete ** Changed in: gnome-control-center Status: New => Incomplete ** Changed in: vino Importance: Medium => Undecided ** Changed in: vino Remote watch: GNOME Bug Tracker #530993 => None ** Changed in: vino Status: New => Incomplete ** Changed in: xorg-server Importance: Medium => Undecided ** Changed in: xorg-server Status: Invalid => New ** Changed in: xorg-server Remote watch: freedesktop.org Bugzilla #15133 => None ** Changed in: xorg-server Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/192508 Title: mouse keys too easy to accidently turn on Status in gnome-control-center: Incomplete Status in One Hundred Papercuts: Incomplete Status in vino: Incomplete Status in X.Org X server: Incomplete Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I am using Hardy Heron and several times now I have tried to use my number pad only to discover that they now move the mouse.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 192508] Re: mouse keys too easy to accidently turn on
Just wanted to add further confirmation that this particular keyboard shortcut is 'too easy' to activate. One of the babies in the house, each barely over one year old, reached up and randomly pressed buttons on my keyboard, turning on the 'mouse keys' function and disabling the numpad. I've been perplexed by this for a couple of months at least. The suggestions I've seen to 'fix' the problem don't work for me on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS 64-bit. The system completely ignores the Settings|Universal Access|Pointing and Clicking|Mouse Keys setting. Using ALT+L-SHIFT+NUMLOCK, or SHIFT+NUMLOCK does the exact same thing as simply pressing NUMLOCK alone. I believe that shortly after building this PC I had set the BIOS on my computer to automatically turn ON the numpad. I think that may be part of this insidious problem. Because now, when the light is ON for the NUMLOCK key, I am in Mouse Keys mode. And, when the NUMLOCK key is switched OFF, the numpad works normally. Is there a way to permanently disable Mouse Keys, and get my keyboard to operate the way it used to? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/192508 Title: mouse keys too easy to accidently turn on Status in gnome-control-center: New Status in One Hundred Papercuts: Confirmed Status in vino: New Status in X.Org X server: In Progress Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I am using Hardy Heron and several times now I have tried to use my number pad only to discover that they now move the mouse.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 192508] Re: mouse keys too easy to accidently turn on
WIlliam Woelke, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ . If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications-Accessories-Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xorg-server REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER Thank you for your understanding.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 192508] Re: mouse keys too easy to accidently turn on
In saucy the combination is Alt + LShift + NumLock. The problem is that it is not listed in Settings Keyboard Shortcuts Universal Access. It's also difficult to find Settings Universal Access Pointing and Clicking Mouse Keys (Control the pointer using the keypad) to go back to normal behavior after using the combination by mistake. In fact it was easier for me to find org/gnome/desktop/a11y/keyboard/mousekeys-enable=true using dconf dump / (this is a paradox about accessibility! ) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/192508 Title: mouse keys too easy to accidently turn on Status in GNOME Control Center: New Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts: Confirmed Status in GNOME Remote Desktop: New Status in X.Org X server: In Progress Status in “xorg-server” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I am using Hardy Heron and several times now I have tried to use my number pad only to discover that they now move the mouse.
