Keyboard map I suspect. What exactly is the difference between a "main" and a "secondary" user? /Per Jessen, Zürich

Purpose. The main is all the emails etc for support the secondary has all my political lists which do not belong mixed in with the support. Does each user have a separate keyboard map?

Just so I understand this correctly, you use different logins for different email lists? -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998

Different emails. I use free pop3 email providers for the other list and my primary is myrealbox for this list. That way the ISP is not relavant to mail. -- ___ _ _ _ ____ _ _ _ | | | | [__ | | | |___ |_|_| ___] | \/

No, you'd normally have the same keyboard map for all users. Any user-specific keyboard map would be specified in the users profile, e.g. ~/.profile In which application do you see the numeric keypad not working? /Per Jessen, Zürich

All in user JUNO. Even in konsole with numlock set. Interestingly enough when logging into that user I use the numberpad for part of the password. ___ _ _ _ ____ _ _ _ | | | | [__ | | | |___ |_|_| ___] | \/

I haven't either, but then I've got systems booting 9.1. :)
Still no reason the number pad works in one user but not the other. Its not the KVM either because its fine on the other box where XP resides. -- ___ _ _ _ ____ _ _ _ | | | | [__ | | | |___ |_|_| ___] | \/

I doesn't appear you've really described the malfunction. The number pad can appear to be inoperative if the Num Lock mode is off. Have you tried activating the Num Lock key? What is the state of the keyboard's Num Lock indicator, if there is one.

My fault, transposed the version numbers. That should have referred to SuSE 9.3 with stock KDE.
