gnome-session-3.16.0-1.fc22.x86_64 gdm-3.16.1.1-1.fc22.x86_64 Testing with Fedora 22 beta on a laptop, this is what happens for me: 1. Boot and log in 2. Plug in external keyboard 3. Turn on numlock (numlock light goes on) 4. Type numbers from numpad 5. Reboot (numlock light remains off) 6. Log in (numlock light goes on) 7. Type numbers from numpad 8. Log out (numlock light remains on) 9. Cannot type numbers from numpad without hitting numlock button Clearly, at step 8, the light should have gone off. If I do this: 10. Press numlock on login screen until light is on and can type numbers from numpad 11. Reboot (light flickers and then goes off) 12. Light is off, cannot type numbers from numpad For a single-user machine, I would maybe want the login screen to remember that numlock was turned on during the last login across reboots. But on a multi-user system, I can see the argument for always having it off (or whatever the BIOS chooses) since some people may turn it on to log in, but others don't. So this is probably fine.
I suspect this is tangentially related - on my F22 desktop, when I log in, my previous state (in my case, numlock on) is remembered and active, but the numlock light on my keyboard is off. It seems that the numlock light/status is disconnected from the actual state. Is there a way to check the saved state at login, make sure it's set, and *also* make sure the LED is set correctly? This is only an annoyance, doesn't really affect usability.
