View Full Version : Numlockx doesn't work in Fedora 14

Hi!
Since I prefer having NumLock enabled at startup, I've installed numlockx on my brand-new Fedora 14 RC1.
But it doesn't seem to work, as NumLock isn't activated at startup.
Even launching
numlockx on
from the terminal has no effect.

Is this a bug in numlockx? Is there a workaround?

I've just found this bug report (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=614543) that's related to my problem.
It seems there's no solution for it yet.

hi,

had the same problem, but with version 1.2 its gone.
cd /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES
get the spec file from: http://www.sendspace.com/file/hryp6b
spectool -g numlockx.spec
cd ../SPECS
rpmbuild -ba numlockx.spec

Thanks.
I think I'll wait for this new version to be included in the official repositories.
Bye.
