    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
    Code:
    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 that's related to my problem.
    It seems there's no solution for it yet.
    Operating system: Fedora 20 "Heisenbug" x86_64

    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.
