Description of problem: SDDM turns on NUM LOCK. I discovered this when trying to enter my name when logging into my laptop and for an instant thought my keyboard was broken. I then tried on my desktop and can see that the NUM LOCK is turned on when the SDDM login screen is displayed. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): sddm-0.2.0-0.16.20130914git50ca5b20.fc19.x86_64 How reproducible: At system login... Steps to Reproduce: 1. Logoff or restart system 2. SDDM login screen is displayed 3. NUM LOCK is turned on Actual results: NUM LOCK set Expected results: NUM LOCK off Additional info: While there is a quick fix for this (manually turning off NUM LOCK), NUM LOCK should not be arbitrarily turned on, especially when people are entering their userids and passwords. It's just causes unnecessary confusion.
This is also present in Fedora 20... and has bitten myself as well as few others in #fedora-kde who couldn't login and though their keyboard was mapped incorrectly.

Happens in F20 with sddm-0.2.0-0.16.20130914git50ca5b20.fc20. Have not tried the updates-testing version due to the reported problems with it. Does not happen with KDM. Changing Version to 20. (If this gets fixed in 20 and is still broken in 19, I'll reopen for 19.)
NUM Lock issue still exists with sddm-0.2.0-0.16.20130914git50ca5b20.fc20
Hi, A very fast status report from yours truly. I've a hardware improvemnt: Asus, 1.9Ghz 14 inch display and VT-x that doesn't replace my Acer 725-0412 therefore this issue is still a conern. 1. I downloaded the source, built it and got a breakpoint on main (). 2. I've noticed that if enter sddm on the command prompt the num lock is foobar once again.
Hi, this issue is completely addressable by your configuration - just set NumLock in /etc/sddm.conf to "None" and SDDM won't touch your settings. The bug is all about default settings and the release containing configuration where it's set to None by default has not been pushed yet because there were other issues... I'm still working on a new, complete release...
I tested the conf file entry set to none on my my Asus last night (Eastern Standard Time) and on my Acer earlier this morning. This solves my problem, thank you!
