15.9. How do I start KDE with the Num-Lock on?

Have you tried 'man setleds'?

In addition, you might want to edit your $HOME/.Xmodmap and put the following lines in:

 ! redefines numeric keypad to be used without NumLock
 keycode 79 = 7
 keycode 80 = 8
 keycode 81 = 9
 
 keycode 83 = 4
 keycode 84 = 5
 keycode 85 = 6
 
 keycode 87 = 1
 keycode 88 = 2
 keycode 89 = 3
 
 keycode 90 = 0
 keycode 91 = comma
 keycode 86 = plus
 
 ! deactivates NumLock key
 keycode 77 =            

Other possible alternatives:

  1. xkeycaps: right clicking should allow edits. May have to do this as root.

  2. "man XF86Config" and look under section Keyboard.
