How do I get Numlock to be on as standard in Fedora Core 4?
Would like it for all users if possible.
You could just turn it on in the BIOS. Oh, wait, that doesn't
work. I still don't understand why Linux cannot simply abide
by the BIOS setting and leave numlock alone. Even Windows 95
got that right.
I remember this same discussion about BIOS and numlock and something
about the kernel from years ago. It may be worth searching the archives
on this one. It may be searchable in the RedHat archives.
Now, I find that turning it on takes all of about 1 ms but it would be
nice if it did recognize the bios setting.
May be worth posting the question to the development people or RFE again.
Why is it so hard just to leave it alone. Change when the key
gets released. Why does this conversation even have to take
place? As was pointed out, even Win95 got it "right". It's
set however the user puts it.

You have found the bank of Larn.
I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
