Yes, that works. I've always despised the use of the keypad for navigation, but then I grew up with Macs. My xmodmap file sets these all to numbers, all the time. } Now i would like these settings to be overridden when i push the numlock } key so i can then generate numbers instead of navigating. } } How do i specify this for X and console? I do not know that much } on keyboard settings. I found stuff on loadkeys, dumpkeys, keymap, } getkeycodes, setkeycodes and to be honest, it sounds a bit complicated. Nope, it's way simpler than that: keycode 79 = Home KP_7 keycode 87 = End KP_1 keycode 81 = Prior KP_9 keycode 89 = Next KP_3 keycode 83 = Left KP_4 keycode 88 = Down KP_2 keycode 85 = Right KP_6 keycode 80 = Up KP_8 That should do it, though I may have the numbers associated with wrong keys. It's just possible that you don't have numlock set up properly, in which case you should also add the following two lines: clear mod3 add mod3 = Num_Lock Note that all of this only works in X; I have no idea how to do it in the text console. } Anyway, any sollution or links to tutorials (simple) are welcome. } Thanks, } Benedict --Greg -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
