Subject: [gentoo-user] disable numlock on netbook

1 I have Gentoo on a first gen Acer Aspire One. The teeny keyboard doesn't
2 have a numpad, it's simulated by using the right-hand bunch of keys and
3 you engage it with Fn-F11
4
5 It's recently started booting up with the numpad on which is annoying at
6 first login as my username is not a3an0 .... The Num LED is also off at
7 this stage. There used to be a way to set numlock on or off in
8 baselayout/openrc but now I can't find it. "grep -r numlock /etc"
9 returns nothing relevant, and /etc/init.d/numlock is to enable it with
10 no function to disable it (I have this script disable in default runlevel)
11
12 How is this done these days?
13 Should I call setleds in rc.local somewhere?
