numeric
keypad
behaves
unpredictably
Description:
The
symptoms
vary
depending
on
the
operating
system
in
use:
v
Windows
Server
2003:
Using
the
number-lock
button
bar
icon
has
no
effect
on
the
signals
that
are
sent
to
the
server
from
the
numeric-keypad
keys
of
the
client.
The
numeric
keypad
behavior
is
controlled
solely
by
the
Num
Lock
key
on
the
client
keyboard.
v
SuSE
Linux
Enterprise
Server
8
(SLES8):
When
the
number-lock
function
is
turned
on
at
both
the
client
and
server,
numeric
characters
are
sent
when
you
press
the
keys
on
the
numeric
keypad.
Otherwise,
the
action
signals
(Home,
PgUp,
and
so
on)
are
sent.
v
Red
Hat
Advanced
Server
2.1
for
IPF:
When
the

is
turned
on
at
both
the
client
and

you
press
the

on
the

(Home,
PgUp,
and
so
on)
are
sent.
Solution:
Avoid
using
the
numeric
keypad
when
running
any
version
of
Linux.
Instead,
use
the
regular
keyboard
keys.
You
can
use
the
numeric
keypad
when
running
Windows,
but
only
the
number-lock
state
at
the
client
has
any
effect.
