See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-screensaver/+bug/841541 which seems to be a direct match Filing under x server after discussion with halfline and jrb gnome-screensaver-3.2.0-1.fc16.x86_64 xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.11.3-1.fc16.x86_64 the gnome-screensaver unlock dialog shows two indicators that the numlock key is on (both with an icon the text field and with text in the dialog). The key is not on. There seems to be no way to clear that indicator (reboot, etc). The numlock key is not on, if I press the numlock key there is no change to the indicators but the numlock feature works, if I press it again, it disables the numlock feature, however the indicators continue to show numlock is on
I just noticed the exact same behavior on 2 different machines with F16/gnome3 It appears if I key in numlock during normal gnome session [which I normally never use] - the status stays as on [on the gnome-screensaver passwd prompt] - even if you toggle numlock off [either during gnome regular session or during the screen saver login prompt]. And this is persisting after reboot aswell. So I'm not sure how to clear up this state info in gnome.. gnome-screensaver-3.2.0-1.fc16.x86_64 xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.11.4-3.fc16.x86_64 kernel-3.4.9-2.fc16.x86_64
This message is a reminder that Fedora 16 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 16. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '16'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 16's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 16 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Fedora 16 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2013-02-12. Fedora 16 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
