Set Num Lock

scott7742 · 12-27-2000, 09:53 PM

The script:
for t in 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
do
setleds +num < /dev/tty$t > /dev/null
done

was added to /etc/rc.d/rc/local and appeared to execute
because the Num Lock led cam on briefly but was turned off
before the login logo appeared. How can I turn on the
Num Lock led before logging on? This for Redhat 6.1.

Here is the one that I have seen. Let us know if it works.

Code:

INITTY=/dev/tty[1-8]
for tty in $INITTY; do
     setleds -D +num < $tty
done
