X Config - Keyboard


Hello,

Is there an option in the xorg.conf file keyboard section to have the NumLock on when X starts? I saw an option for XLEDS but it seems that that is for remapping those keys and not turning them on, but I may not be understanding that option well enough. Or is there another option that can do this?

Option "Xleds" "1 2 3"
Specify which keyboard LEDs can be user-controlled (eg, with xset(1))
To be able to turn on numlock you need the numlockx utility that is installed in most distros.
