Numlockx: Enabling the numeric keypad at boot
Introduction
The numeric keypad is not necessarily activated at boot time, which can quickly become annoying. Here’s a method to enable it automatically on Gnome.
Installation
apt-get install numlockx
Configuration
We’ll use numlockx with GDM. Insert this line into /etc/gdm/Init/Default
:
test -x /usr/bin/numlockx && /usr/bin/numlockx on
Now you just need to restart your GDM and it works! :-)
