Public bug reported:
I'm trying to figure out the cause of this, but have been unable to
isolate it to a single package or component. I have not found any
relevant log information yet.
Truthfully, I have been unable to determine if this is a problem with
the kernel, the drivers, xorg, gnome, or anything else. If I can
isolate it to a specific package, I will reassign it.
The indirect cause:
Upgrade from Hardy Heron to Intrepid Ibex and upgrade to 2.6.27 kernel and
upgrade to GNOME that came with Ibex.
The symptoms:
The NUM LOCK toggle key no longer functions on my HP Pavilion dv9610us Notebook
PC. Like the rest of the 17" HP Pavilion notebooks from this timeframe (late
2007), it has a full keyboard, including a numeric keypad. The numeric keypad
is almost useless to me when I cannot turn on NUM LOCK.
NUM LOCK stays off.
I will be happy to provide further bug information, including logs,
behavior, configuration files, etc., but I have not had much luck
determining any relevant troubleshooting information (which is unusual
for me).
