Bug Description

Hi,

i want numlock enabled by default because i have numpad on my laptop...as there seems no gui-setting and earlier commands not working (missing keys) i used these:

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.peripherals.keyboard numlock-state true
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.peripherals.keyboard remember-numlock-state false

which bring no error, but after reboot numlock is off again, any way to enable it?

regards Frank

This bug still affects ubuntu development 22.04.
edit: as a workaround numlockx was installed from synaptic and the command "numlockx on" added as a startup application

Testing this issue once again, now using 22.04.1 and removing numlockx from startup applications the state of numlock is remembered, so it seems that this issue is fixed.
