Interestingly, just running setleds +num in a TTY do work...

@gimix311

The script in this package is very old, it may be possible the behavior of settled +num has changed since 2013...

I have not looked into the mentioned issue, and this package is a bit of a toy script I submitted to the AUR because - I used to spend a lot more time on actual TTYs on one of my computers back then - I wanted to know how users were actually able to contribute to the "ArchLinux Users Repository" - I was a bored student

I am moving the upstream of this to a github repository hosted here: https://github.com/Ybalrid/systemd-numlockontty

What this package does is described verbatim in the wiki page that references setting the numlock state automatically, it just "automate" creating a systemd service that calls a script every time you boot your computer.

I do not have the time to look into how to fix the actual script right now, but it is on GH. If anybody wants to PR it, I'll be happy to merge it and push an updated version here :-)

This activates the numlock LED, but doesn't enable the numpad.

Just tried out of curiosity and doesn't work. Upon installation it "semi-broke" my Arch Cinnamon DE install by also uninstalling the following (output from Pamac log): [2020-07-15T10:49:50+0200] [ALPM] removed systemd-numlockontty (0.1-12) [2020-07-15T10:49:50+0200] [ALPM] removed vulkan-icd-loader (1.2.146-1) [2020-07-15T10:49:50+0200] [ALPM] removed dhcpcd (9.1.4-1) [2020-07-15T10:49:50+0200] [ALPM] removed dav1d (0.7.1-1) [2020-07-15T10:49:50+0200] [ALPM] removed ffmpeg (2:4.2.3-2) [2020-07-15T10:49:50+0200] [ALPM] removed chromaprint (1.5.0-1) [2020-07-15T10:49:50+0200] [ALPM] removed gst-plugins-bad (1.16.2-13) [2020-07-15T10:49:50+0200] [ALPM] removed libplacebo (1.29.1-3) [2020-07-15T10:49:50+0200] [ALPM] removed gstreamer-vaapi (1.16.2-2) [2020-07-15T10:49:50+0200] [ALPM] removed vlc (3.0.11-1) [2020-07-15T10:49:50+0200] [ALPM] removed ffmpegthumbnailer (2.2.2-2) [2020-07-15T10:49:50+0200] [ALPM] removed firefox (78.0.1-1) [2020-07-15T10:49:50+0200] [ALPM] removed gst-libav (1.16.2-2) [2020-07-15T10:49:50+0200] [ALPM] removed guvcview-common (2.0.6-5) [2020-07-15T10:49:50+0200] [ALPM] removed mencoder (38157-2) [2020-07-15T10:49:50+0200] [ALPM] removed transcode (1.1.7-33) [2020-07-15T10:49:50+0200] [ALPM] removed xine-lib (1.2.10-4) [2020-07-15T10:49:50+0200] [ALPM] removed guvcview (2.0.6-5) [2020-07-15T10:49:50+0200] [ALPM] removed quodlibet (4.3.0-2) [2020-07-14T10:37:46+0200] [ALPM] installed systemd-numlockontty (0.1-12)

Well for me the problem is gone now. But imho it was not this package. I ran the 'setleds' command from this package separately, same problem. So it was a problem with 'sedleds' and thous a kernel bug, maybe?!

doragasu commented on 2019-10-05 07:52 (UTC)

I'm having the same problem I think for a month or so. I did not investigate it and did not arrive to the conclusion that this package is affected, but it seems so.

FuelFlo commented on 2019-10-04 22:04 (UTC)

Hey,

i've got following strange problem. Starting numlockontty as a service on boot, or manually in the shell only turns on the numlock light, but not the function (still not typing numbers). When pressing the physical numlock key afterwards, the light turns off but numlock function gets activated.

Any ideas how to troubleshoot this?

New PKGBUILD, same old bash script inside. I only updated URLs to point to the new download location!

Ybalrid commented on 2016-08-07 17:31 (UTC)

Hi, I had a problem with the payment for the server. It should be back online soon. Sorry about that

DomX commented on 2016-08-07 15:16 (UTC)

Hey, guys, is the tarball saved anywhere else? I can't reach the source address...
