GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 83773
num lock causes number pad to not work for 2, 4, 6,and 8
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
When numlock is engaged, the 2, 4, 6, and 8 keys do not enter. If a button is in focus, these keys will move the focus down, left, right, and up respectively. However, when numlock is disengaged, the keys enter as numbers.
Same problem with 29-May-2002 snap of gcalc 1.107.0. These keys work in normal string gadgets (RH7.3/x86).
This actually a gtk bug. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 79184 ***
