Hi,

Recently upgraded to xorg 7.3, and it now I've got mousekeys permanently turned on on my USB keyboard. You know, the thing where the numeric keypad controls the mouse.

Anyone know what the problem is?

Here's my xorg.conf file (relavent bits):
xorg.conf:


Section "Module"
   Load  "glx"
   Load  "extmod"
   Load  "xtrap"
   Load  "record"
   Load  "dbe"
   # Load   "dri"
   Load  "freetype"
   Load  "type1"
EndSection

Section "Extensions"
   Option "Composite"   "Enable"
   Option "RENDER"      "Enable"
EndSection

Section "ServerFlags"
    Option   "blank time"   "20"
    Option   "standby time"   "30"
    Option   "suspend time"   "30"
    Option   "off time"   "30"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
   Identifier  "Keyboard0"
   Driver       "kbd"
   Option       "AutoRepeat"    "250 30"
   Option   "XkbModel"   "pc101"
   Option   "XkbLayout"   "us"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
   Identifier  "Mouse0"
   Driver       "mouse"
    Option       "Protocol" "auto"
   Option       "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
   Option       "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
   Identifier "default-keyboard"
   Driver "evdev"
    Option "evBits"  "+1"
   Option "keyBits" "~1-255 ~352-511"
   Option "Pass"    "3"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
   Identifier "default-mouse"
   Driver "evdev"
   Option "evBits"  "+1-2"
   Option "keyBits" "~272-287"
   Option "relBits" "~0-2 ~6 ~8"
   Option "Pass"    "3"
   Option "HWheelRelativeAxisButtons" "7 6"
EndSection

Section "ServerLayout"
   Identifier     "normal"
   Screen       0  "TFTScreen0" 0 0
   InputDevice    "default-mouse" "CorePointer"
   InputDevice    "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection


I've got an Nvidia card with latest drivers.

Anyone know of this problem?

Thanks

I ran into a similar difficulty in KDE.
I just discovered that "Shift" + "NumLock" brings up a dialog asking whether I would like to activate/deactivate mouse keys.
