Description of problem: In SDDM the state of NumLock key and its LED indicator are disparate. The LED is on, but the NumLock key functionality is off. You have to press the NumLock key once to be able to enter numbers using number block keys. After you press the NumLock key the NumLock LED remains on. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): sddm-0.14.0-13.mga6 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Turn on the computer 2. Wait until SDDM is loaded; lock at NumLock LED on keyboard, press number block keys to enter numbers Actual results: NumLock LED is on, but NumLock state is off. You cannot use the number block to enter numbers. Expected results: NumLock LED and NumLock state should be in sync. Either off or on. Additional info: When you log in to a session and log out the problem is present again. Work around for SDDM: in file '/etc/sddm.conf' in section '[General]' set either: Numlock=on OR Numlock=off reboot the computer.

Assigning to the KDE maintainers. @ KDE team: Does numlock in SDDM _not_ need the numlock package? Then the bugs i'm adding to the "See also:" field, cannot have any influence on this bug, in that case please empty that field ;-)

I removed the numlock package, but of course, as it was written. There is a problem with the removal. But the "rpm -e --nodeps --noscripts numlock" command helped. I restarted the computer. The numlock was powered on by BIOS. After the Grub2 it went off. When the X sddm came on, the numlock was also turned on. Typing numbers into sddm was working fine.
This message is a reminder that Mageia 6 is end of life. Mageia stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Mageia 6. At that time this bug will be closed as OLD (EOL). Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Mageia version prior to Mageia 6's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we cannot be able to fix it before Mageia 6 was end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Mageia, you are encouraged to click on "Version" and change it against that version of Mageia. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Mageia release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. -- Mageia Bugsquad
