Thanks. Could you please tell us the exact brand/model of your keyboard? Do you have another keyboard somewhere that you could try?
It sounds strange I know, but apparently on a few computers the numpad keys start producing different keycodes when numlock is off (namely the keycodes of the standalone cursor keys). I have no clue yet if it's a problem with the keyboard itself, or the motherboard, bios, what else tries to be more clever than it should... Make sure NumLock is off. From a terminal start "xev", and press numpad 1. A few friends confirmed to me that they see "keycode 87, keysym KP_End" which is I think the expected result. On the other hand, I see "keycode 115, keysym End" which apparently somehow leads to the broken behavior, I guess you also see this latter. (Just for reference: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=600659#c63 is a totally different bug apparently caused by the same underlying weird keycode change.) ** Bug watch added: GNOME Bug Tracker #600659 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=600659 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1247668 Title: NumLock turned off on layout switch To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xorg-server/+bug/1247668/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
