I am needing to know how do I get my numlock to automatically turn on
when X loads and the log in screen comes up?
I have Numlockx installed, but the numlock does not come on after x
loads.
I had it set in the DELL bios for numlock to be on at boot, but after X
loads, when you go to hit a number on the 10 key all you hear is an
internal beep from the computer. I have to toggle the numlock off and
back on then punch the numbers in for my password.
Have it set this way was fine for all the other DE's i've used... MATE
and Gnome... But not for XFCE for some reason.
I have never needed the cursoring functions on the 10-key so I created a
file I load at boot that sets the numlock and replaces the cursor stuff
with 0-9.
.kbrc
#!/bin/bash
xmodmap -e "keycode 77 = KP_Equal KP_Equal KP_Equal"
xmodmap -e "keycode 90 = KP_0 KP_0 KP_0"
xmodmap -e "keycode 87 = KP_1 KP_1 KP_1"
xmodmap -e "keycode 88 = KP_2 KP_2 KP_2"
xmodmap -e "keycode 89 = KP_3 KP_3 KP_3"
xmodmap -e "keycode 83 = KP_4 KP_4 KP_4"
xmodmap -e "keycode 84 = KP_5 KP_5 KP_5"
xmodmap -e "keycode 85 = KP_6 KP_6 KP_6"
xmodmap -e "keycode 79 = KP_7 KP_7 KP_7"
xmodmap -e "keycode 80 = KP_8 KP_8 KP_8"
xmodmap -e "keycode 81 = KP_9 KP_9 KP_9"
xmodmap -e "keycode 91 = KP_Decimal KP_Decimal KP_Decimal"
and at the end of .bashrc
#------------------------------#
# replace cursor pad w/ 10key
[ -f ~/.kbrc ] && . ~/.kbrc
I did this so long ago I forgot something kool. The numlock is remapped
to "=".
If you don't want the = sign comment out the first xmodmap line.
