Discussion: #1: Ned Ulbricht (ned_ulbricht) (2010-07-19 01:25:12) Enabling NumLock at boot would be very annoying on ThinkPads (and possibly other laptops) that overlay the numeric keypad on top of the alphabetic keys. #2: Rastislav Krupansky (ra100) (2010-07-19 06:52:52) You can enable NumLock during installation. In the "Installation settings" window click on "Keyboard layout" and there you can set NumLock. #3: Genix Info (genixinfo) (2010-07-19 08:56:36) (reply to #2) This configuration could come separately, at the time of installation, as well as in the MBR of the HD, could have the option to enable or disable Num Look, at the time of installation. + #4: Jan Engelhardt (jengelh) (2010-07-19 19:13:31) (reply to #3) + Just change it in /etc/sysconfig/keyboard. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/310152
