The thing is in "keyboards":
[rick@prophead ~]$ xfconf-query -lv -c keyboards /Default/Numlock true
OK, but you're over my head. Where is "keyboards"? Or should I be
asking where xfconf is?
[root@Hbsk4 ~]# cd /usr/share/system-config-keyboard
[root@Hbsk4 system-config-keyboard]# ls
keyboard_cli.py keyboard_gui.pyo system-config-keyboard.py
keyboard_cli.pyc keyboard_tui.py system-config-keyboard.pyc
keyboard_cli.pyo keyboard_tui.pyc system-config-keyboard.pyo
keyboard_gui.py keyboard_tui.pyo
keyboard_gui.pyc pixmaps
[root@Hbsk4 system-config-keyboard]#
As the logged-in user, try running
xfconf-query -lv -c keyboards
and see what response you get. If you see something like
/Default/Numlock false
then you can try:
xfconf-query -c keyboards -p /Default/Numlock -s true
to set it to true. Here's a transcript of what I did:
[rick@prophead ~]$ xfconf-query -lv -c keyboards
/Default/Numlock true
[rick@prophead ~]$ xfconf-query -c keyboards -p /Default/Numlock -s false
[rick@prophead ~]$ xfconf-query -lv -c keyboards
/Default/Numlock false
[rick@prophead ~]$ xfconf-query -c keyboards -p /Default/Numlock -s true
This just demonstrates that it was set to "true". I set it to "false"
and verified it, then put it back to "true". I have no idea if setting
it to the other state will have any effect on your issue, but you can
try it. I don't believe numlock is set on my machine as my keypad does
cursor movement unless I actually push the NumLock key even though the
xfconf-query reports it as "true".
