I don't agree with you, Jeff : kernel should keep the numlock state when it starts and we shouldn't have to read BIOS state with hwinfo to workaround it.
This is probably true, but is a separate issue. My point is that there are systems that don't have a numlock boot option and that had the ability to set the default are not longer having it honored. Also, it's a pretty unreasonable expectation to require users that want a different default to change their BIOSes. We should honor if it's set and override it if it's set in software. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
