Description Keith D. Burgess Jr. 2000-08-08 10:49:40 UTC

During the install the right number keypad does not work. The numlock key
can be toggled but has no effect on the numbers themselves. They do
however, work once Pinstripe is installed. Some apps (Abiword) as an
example, do not recognize the right keypad at all.

Standard US keyboard.
Dell Optiplex GX1

I don't think the right keypad has ever worked in the installer, since it's rare
(from what we can tell) that it is used a lot during installations... since this
defect is filed against the public beta, I'm marking this defect as DEFERRED and
we will re-visit it in a later release.  Thanks for report it!

Glen,

I just installed 6.2 on an identical DELL box here as the one I origionally
filed this bug report on and the keypad in 6.2 does work. But in Pinstripe and
7.0 no go. Just a heads up for 7.1

Thx.

Yes, I have same problem on my HP brio machine, the keynoard works fine on Red 
Hat 6.2. It doesn't work when I upgrade or reinstall 7.0. Besides, my 
Backspace, Ctrl-Z, CTRL-D doesn't work either.

We should consider making the keypad enter numbers.
