Paul Collins (pjdc) wrote : "num lock is on" warning remains even after num lock is turned off

After fiddling with Num Lock, I noticed that the lock window claimed it was still enabled, and yet it is not.

Sequence of events:
* Turn on Num Lock.
* Lock the screen. (On a ThinkPad, I do this by pressing Fn+F2. Whatever option it is that means "lock the screen immediately", I have it turned on.)
* Tap a key to bring up the screen-locked/enter-password dialog.
* Observe the warning.
* Turn off Num Lock.
* Observe the warning is still there.
* Successfully unlock the screen.
* Lock the screen again.
* Observe the warning is still there.
* [Optional] Unlock the screen. File a bug against gnome-screensaver.

Not related to bug #835649, which concerns showing the warning when Num Lock is enabled but not otherwise problematic, e.g. when using a "full-size" (i.e. "has lots of extra keys") keyboard.
