In saucy the combination is Alt + LShift + NumLock. The problem is that it is not listed in Settings > Keyboard > Shortcuts > Universal Access. It's also difficult to find Settings > Universal Access > Pointing and Clicking > Mouse Keys (Control the pointer using the keypad) to go back to normal behavior after using the combination by mistake. In fact it was easier for me to find org/gnome/desktop/a11y/keyboard/mousekeys-enable=true using dconf dump / (this is a paradox about accessibility! )

I don't know if there is a short cut key I am hitting on accident, but it is rather annoying. Then sometimes when I disable mouse keys, the numlock becomes switched so that the system thinks numlock is on when the light is off and vice-versa. Update: the shortcut is: shift+num-lock To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-control-center/+bug/192508/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
