[11:12] <Mamarok> is there a known problem with 105-key keyboards under X? My numpad digits don't work in GUI apps, only operators do, but all keys perform well in TTY2
[11:13] <Mamarok> there is also a report in the KKDE forum here: https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=225&t=167364 and a slightly older report in ther Arch forum here: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=250191
[11:13] <Mamarok> contrary to what some people say in the KDE forum, this is not just KDE apps, same problem in Firefox and Chrome
[11:28] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[13:13] <IrcsomeBot> <DarinMiller> @Mamarok, Numeric keypad int 20.04 requires manual Num lock toggle even though System Settings, Input Devices, keyboard is set on. Good news, It's fixed in 20.10.
[13:20] <Mamarok> I can't toggle it even manually, already tried that
[13:39] <BluesKaj> the setting on 20.10 is not fixed, number lock is not holding in system settings
[13:40] <BluesKaj> @DarinMiller ^
[13:41] <BluesKaj> I'll try a reboot
[13:44] <BluesKaj> nope, numberlock doesn't hold it's setting
[13:45] <IrcsomeBot> <DarinMiller> Strange, numlock working fine on 20.10 my Dell Laptop with keypad. 20.04 keypad does not work on any of my systems (requires manual toggle).
[13:49] <BluesKaj> haven't checked the laptop yet. 20.10 is installed on it as well
[13:51] <IrcsomeBot> <DarinMiller> I have an older laptop with keypad, but video card is no longer supported past 20.04, so I have not bothered to update it to 20.10.
[13:53] <IrcsomeBot> <DarinMiller> I might try upgrading a test disk to 20.10 on my desktop to as another datapoint....
[13:53] <BluesKaj> well, i'm testing 20.10 on both as requested and my dell laptop is the same as this pc, numberlock isn't holding in system settings
[13:54] <IrcsomeBot> <DarinMiller> So system settings input devices keyboard numlock toggles to off after reboot, or plasma does not honor the Turn on option?
[13:56] <BluesKaj> seems to be the latter
[13:57] <BluesKaj> the numberlock key works fine, and it should be disabled in system settings if the turn on there is applied
[14:29] <IrcsomeBot> <DarinMiller> Very strange... booted my desktop into a 20.04 test disk and numlocks is working fine. But in my primary session, it fails. Hmmmm, I wonder if it's anaconda/python related....
[14:36] <IrcsomeBot> <DarinMiller> Anaconda interferes with pastebinit and many other native python based system tools.
