I attached my KDE 3.5 config, so it should be enough to set czech locale (LANG="cs_CZ.UTF-8") and use my configuration. In some cases the num lock LED stays on when KDE starts, but is turned off after some time (however the numeric keypad still works). The moment when the LED goes out is related to changing window focus. I usually start some applications like Firefox, Thunderbird and Konsole and switch among them, or quit any of the application and then start it again. In no more than 5 minutes LED goes out. I've reproduces the issue on my two computers (Core 2 Duo + P965, Athlon X2 + 780G) with common PS/2 keyboards. -- 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.

Can you try if using 'kcminit keyboard' the same way like you used numlockx works too? (It re-initiates the KDE settings, so you'll first need to alter the numlock state or change the option using 'kcmshell keyboard'). -- 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.

I can reproduce the bug this way: - restart X and log in -> num lock is on - open a konsole -> num lock is still on - press the left shift key -> num lock light switches off, although num is still working - after pressing num lock twice, num lock light is on again and stays on -- 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.

After removing one keyboard layout, I still had the setting for keyboard layouts active. Switching off keyboard layouts completely solved the problem with the numlock light. -- 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.
