Hi,
I'm using Debian testing and run KDE Plasma 5 (Framework 5.62.0, Qt
5.12.5, xcb window system, Application 19.08.1, kde-plasma-desktop version
5:104). Originally the indicator worked: in sddm login screen it would
show warning when Capslock is ON; after logging into Plasma session a small
icon would show beside the system tray when Capslock is ON. However from
some day it didn't work anymore.
The current status of my system is:
- In sddm login screen, the Capslock ON warning *always* shows.
- In Plasma the keyboard indicator plasmoids
(org.kde.plasma.keyboardindicator) shows nothing no matter what the
capslock/numlock status is.
- Using xset -q I can get *correct* Capslock/Numlock status. Using
xev I can see events of Capslock key being pressed and released.
It looks like no problem in X window level, but the status does not pass
to sddm/plasma correctly.
Any idea or suggestion for finding or fixing the problem?
Regards, Franklin
No suggestion, but I can confirm this behaviour.
Numlock problems had already been reported

Not sure, but it looks like not the same problem. My problem is about the
indicator not the status itself. The NumLock/Capslock status is correct
according to the xset -q.
I'm without systemd here, using sysvinit, so I was hesitant to speak up.
The settings for numlock have changed in testing kde5.
I think the systemsettings, input device module is suppose to be
handling numlock on/off at sddm start.
Go to "/etc/sddm.conf" and look for "Numlock=none" for me that was the
default I found and I changed it to on.
The options are none, off and on.
I also go to systemsettings/input device just to make sure the settings
say to leave numlock along. Now it comes on at boot and stays on without
installing any extra numlock software.
I hope that helps.
