[Bug 61413] Re: Logitech DiNovo MediaPad should not toggle Numlock

[Robert Lange]

To throw my hat in the ring, I think that the default behavior of the
Mediapad *should* be to toggle numlock-mode.  On any standard keyboard
configuration, this should pose no problem and is probably what the user
wanted.

That said, I think this is a valid bug for laptop computer users, but
the bug needs to be recast -- the behavior that needs to be changed is
not the Mediapad toggling numlock-mode.  Instead, what needs to be
changed is that toggling on numlock-mode, in general, should not
activate the special 3rd-level number keys embedded into some laptop
keyboards.

It is possible that in some laptops, numlock-mode activates, at the BIOS
level, the embedded 3rd-level number keys.  That sucks for those
laptops, but it should be handled as a special case for those laptops,
and should not affect the operation of the Mediapad in general.  In
general, when a user used the Mediapad number pad for numerical data
entry, the user wants the computer in numlock-mode.
