Public bug reported:
after locking the screen with ctl-alt-l the keyboard state changes to
something strange.
I usually leave the keypad in the non-num-lock mode, so that eg "2" maps
to up-arrow (otherwise my keyboard has no dedicated arrow keys, so this
is important.)
During lock (eg at the password screen) the num-lock seems to be engaged
automatically, and I think 2 maps to 2 again (which isn't a problem.)
However, after unlock "2" maps to something odd, neither "2" nor "up".
I have to press num-lock TWICE to get back to my preferred no-num-lock
state. This is wrong.
The problem is similar with all the keypad keys, "2" is just an example.
The arrow mode is something built-in to my Quick-fire cooler master cm-storm
keyboard, it's not something I hacked myself.
This behaviour appeared after I performed LTS upgrade from Xubuntu 16.04 to
Xubuntu 18.04
I'm guessing this is the right package to report, as xscreensaver is not
installed, and flock tries first xscreensaver-command and then "light-
locker-command --lock"
