Same problem here while using Xubuntu 11.10. The usual tweaks do (briefly) light the numlock led upon login, but then the led goes off and numlock stays off.
By 'usual tweaks' I mean: 1. sudo apt-get install numlockx 2. followed by: either: (cd ~/.config/autostart;ln -s $(which numlockx)) or: printf "[Desktop Entry]\nVersion=1.0\nType=Application\nName=numlockx\nExec=/usr/bin/numlockx\nStartupNotify=false\nTerminal=false\nHidden=false\n" > "$HOME/.config/autostart/numlockx.desktop" -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/835532 Title: lightdm does not keep numlock status on boot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/lightdm/+bug/835532/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
