I'm afraid that I must disagree with your assessment. There is no way on earth that I can justify the number pad working as a directional pad by default when there are no arrows marked on the keys and no visible number lock key. Why should someone have to go find a real keyboard to find where the number lock key is if all that person has is mac hardware? Who is to say that that person will even realize that finding the number lock key would be the answer to his problem. All someone who plugs in this keyboard will know is that his numbers don't work and there is no visible indicator on the keyboard what is going on. luckily i am using a laptop that has a number lock light and i can see the status of the lock. If a person is using a desktop there will be no such indicator as there is no number lock light on the keyboard itself.
Is there anyway we can get this keyboard to default to number lock on behavior by default?? Even if this is outside of the kernel itself when someone plugs in this keyboard the system should know that the most desirable mode of operation for this keyboard is to enable to number lock. -- Sincerely Justin Sunseri Please don't print this e-mail unless you really need to. -- Slim USB Apple Keyboard not working correctly when pressing the "numlock" key 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
