A recent ugrade on my mom’s machine running lucid (lsb_release says 10.04.2) turned on the mouse keys in keyboard accessibility by default, when they were previously disabled. This had the very annoying consequence of the numeric keypad apparently not functioning any longer, and only by googling the issue did I find this bug report and understood what had happened. Needless to say, a normal user wouldn’t have found this kind of solution by herself…
I’m attaching apt’s recent log with the list of packages that were upgraded. This list doesn’t contain gnome-control-center, so the issue may actually be with another package. ** Attachment added: "history.log" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/197589/+attachment/1826024/+files/history.log -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-keyboard in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/197589 Title: Numeric keypad no longer works after upgrade _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
