As for the numlock problem, it's very obvious from viewing the code in the drivers/hid/hid-input.c file what is going on. Basically, when you hit the numlock key on an apple keyboard that has a real keypad, it doesn't actually care that you have a real keypad and switches the keyboard into powerbook style keypad mode. That is the letters on the right side of the keyboard take on the keypad functionality. This is obviously wrong for those apple keyboards that actually do have a keypad.
Here's another patch that's probably more correct than the one I posted earlier. When the numlock key is pressed, it checks the model of the keyboard to decide whether or not to change the key mapping. This is still probably wrong however. As long as the precedent for default apple behavior has been set with the whole FN/F-Key business, keyboards that have keypads SHOULD be stuck on numlock. Unfortunately, I'm no kernel programmer, but I'll keep working on this. I have also attached a kernel module file for amd64 machines. Move this file to /lib/modules/2.6.24-12-generic/kernel/drivers/hid/hid.ko and reboot only if you're having this numlock issue and only if you're running amd64 ubuntu. The i386 kernel module is still compiling, but I will post it here when its done and tested. -- Slim USB Apple Keyboard not working correctly.. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/201887 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
