It used to be part of the rc scripts. I have this in my list, but my gentoo |
| 17 |
installation is rather old: |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
# rc-update -s -v | grep numlock |
| 20 |
numlock | |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
You could check if it is enabled on any runlevel and if yes, then 'rc-update |
| 24 |
delete numlock' should get rid of it. Of course if it is not enabled then I |
| 25 |
would be also perplexed how we are supposed to manage it these days. |
