Bug Description
Since I upgrade from ubuntu gnome 16.04 to 16.10, numlock is OFF at login screen while it was ON on 16.04.
Whatever the solutions available on the web (numlockx...), I found no way to turn numlock ON by default at login screen.
To post a comment you must log in.
Also, I've tried the following from various forum suggestions:
- adding numlockx in /etc/rc.local => no difference
( sudo sed -i 's|^exit 0.*$|# Numlock enable\n[ -x /usr/bin/numlockx ] \&\& numlockx on\n\nexit 0|' /etc/rc.local )
- adding numlockx (with a little script) in /etc/gdm3/ Init/Default => No difference
if [ -x /usr/bin/numlockx ]; then
/usr/bin/numlockx on
fi
just before exit 0
- adding numlockx on in startup apps => no difference. ....
numlockx on/off works perfectly after login
