Description keelin.boyle 2002-03-21 13:28:33 UTC
To Reproduce:

1) Start gnome-calculator.
2) Switch on NumLock, attempt to add two numbers using the '+' key on the
keypad and gnome-calculator as the display.

The "Plus" button on the keypad doesn't work with gnome-calculator, but
does work with other calculator applications proving it's not a keyboard
fault.
Comment 1 John Fleck 2002-03-21 14:00:19 UTC
gnome-calculator starts with numlock on by default, so hitting the
numlock key toggles it off.

My original inclination was to mark this "NOTABUG", but the fact that
this has come up twice in a week makes me think maybe the behavior
needs to be changed.
Comment 2 Ka-Hing Cheung 2002-03-22 06:46:27 UTC
I found out that when the numlock is on, numbers 6,8,4,2 on the number
pad doesn't work. Instead, they move the focus as if they are arrow keys
Comment 3 keelin.boyle 2002-03-22 09:53:57 UTC
For me, using beta2 on Solaris, when I have Numlock on, numbers
6,8,4,2, seem to work, but the decimal point actually clears the
display, as opposed to inserting a decimal point.
Comment 4 Luis Villa 2002-03-26 19:30:44 UTC
Urgh. This is another weird gtk/solaris keymapping issue, I'm guessing.
Comment 5 John Fleck 2002-03-30 04:12:10 UTC
On Linux, I get the decimal point either in the default, or after
hitting numlock
Comment 6 prabhut 2002-04-08 12:32:29 UTC
I tested version 1.102.0 version of calculator on Solaris 2.9(64 bit).
It is not working.
