Guys do you use the Run feature in Windows XP? For most, this feature The only thing is, you loose the alternate set of functions (cursor/home/pgdown/etc). Then turn off numlock, and just continue using the keypad. Then again, it might be an entirely different script on some systems. This script can be ~/.xinitrc (called by startx) or something like Xsession if you use xdm/kdm/gdm. Then make sure the script that starts your X session parses this file with the command: Xmodmap in your home directory, and put the following lines in it: Here's how you tell X to interpret the keypad keys as numbers without turning NumLock on. This is fixed as of NEdit 5.2, but that might not help you much. But NEdit shortcuts don't work when NumLock is on. I use the numeric keypad really often, so I keep NumLock on. You have probably NumLock or CapsLock ON. Other keyboard shortcuts (accelerator keys) don't work either. Sometimes NEdit inserts instead of saving the file when I type ^S. On SGI systems, this mechanism is support on IRIX 6.2 with X server patch 1574 or later, on IRIX 6.3 and IRIX 6.4 and all later releases.Ģ. For systems with multiple displays, display 1 would be controlled by the file X1-config.keyboard, etc. The file /usr/lib/X11/xkb/X0-config.keyboard should contain the string IgnoreLockMods=NumLock+Lock. For an X11R6.3 X server supporting the XKB extension, there is a mechanism to ignore the NumLock and CapsLock key as modifiers.

There's another answer which unfortunately isn't widespread as yet. NEdit will likely follow suit with the release of version 5.2.Īnother possibility (writes Peter Daifuku of SGI):

Netscape painfully works around this and the Alt/Meta key reversal on Sun workstations by internally re-implementing the Motif menu accelerator mechanism. You haven't overlooked anything, it's a Motif design flaw.

The keyboard shortcuts (accelerator keys) are not working when 'Caps' or 'Num Lock' are switched on.
