Numpad not working
Hello Friends,
I have recently installed Open SUSE 12.1 with Gnome on Lenovo Thinkpad. I am using it with an external keyboard and monitor. The numpad of the keyboard seem to have some problems. Its not responding at all. I have tried numlock ON/OFF but with no success.
Some forums say, it could be solved by disabling the keyboard options, something like "Move pointer with keyboard'' I was not able to find these settings after investing a lot of time.
Can someone please suggest another solution or workaround ?
thanks in advance,
Chirag

ATKBD(4) BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual ATKBD(4)
NAME
atkbd -- the AT keyboard interface
SYNOPSIS
options ATKBD_DFLT_KEYMAP
makeoptions ATKBD_DFLT_KEYMAP=_keymap_name_
options KBD_DISABLE_KEYMAP_LOAD
device atkbd
In /boot/device.hints:
hint.atkbd.0.at="atkbdc"
hint.atkbd.0.irq="1"
DESCRIPTION
The atkbd driver, together with the atkbdc driver, provides access to the AT 84 keyboard or the AT enhanced keyboard which is connected to
the AT keyboard controller.
This driver is required for the console driver syscons(4).
There can be only one atkbd device defined in the kernel configuration file. This device also requires the atkbdc keyboard controller to be
present. The irq number must always be 1; there is no provision of changing the number.
Function Keys
The AT keyboard has a number of function keys. They are numbered as follows and can be associated with strings by the kbdcontrol(1) command.
You can use a keyboard map file (see kbdmap(5)) to map them to arbitrary keys, particularly the functions in the range from 65 to 96 which
are not used by default.
Function Key number Function Key
1, 2,...12 F1, F2,... F12
13, 14,...24 Shift+F1, Shift+F2,... Shift+F12
25, 26,...36 Ctl+F1, Ctl+F2,... Ctl+F12
37, 38,...48 Shift+Ctl+F1, Shift+Ctl+F2,... Shift+Ctl+F12
49 Home and Numpad 7 (without NumLock)
50 Up Arrow and Numpad 8 (without NumLock)
51 Page Up and Numpad 9 (without NumLock)
52 Numpad -
53 Left Arrow and Numpad 4 (without NumLock)
54 Numpad 5 (without NumLock)
55 Right Arrow and Numpad 6 (without NumLock)
56 Numpad +
57 End and Numpad 1 (without NumLock)
58 Down Arrow and Numpad 2 (without NumLock)
59 Page Down and Numpad 3 (without NumLock)
60 Ins and Numpad 0 (without NumLock)
61 Del
62 Left GUI Key
63 Right GUI Key
64 Menu
65, 66,...96 free (not used by default)
See the man page for the kbdcontrol(1) command for how to assign a string to the function key.
DRIVER CONFIGURATION
Kernel Configuration Options
The following kernel configuration options control the atkbd driver.
ATKBD_DFLT_KEYMAP
This option sets the default, built-in keymap of the atkbd driver to the named keymap. See EXAMPLES below.
KBD_DISABLE_KEYMAP_LOAD
The keymap can be modified by the kbdcontrol(1) command. This option will disable this feature and prevent the user from chang-
ing key assignment.
Driver Flags
The atkbd driver accepts the following driver flags. They can be set either in /boot/device.hints, or else from within the boot loader (see
loader(8)).
bit 0 (FAIL_IF_NO_KBD)
By default the atkbd driver will install even if a keyboard is not actually connected to the system. This option prevents the driver
from being installed in this situation.
bit 1 (NO_RESET)
When this option is given, the atkbd driver will not reset the keyboard when initializing it. It may be useful for laptop computers
whose function keys have special functions and these functions are forgotten when the keyboard is reset.
bit 2 (ALT_SCANCODESET)
Certain keyboards, such as those on some ThinkPad models, behave like the old XT keyboard and require this option.
bit 3 (NO_PROBE_TEST)
When this option is given, the atkbd driver will not test the keyboard port during the probe routine. Some machines hang during boot
when this test is performed.
EXAMPLES
The atkbd driver requires the keyboard controller atkbdc. Thus, the kernel configuration file should contain the following lines.
device atkbdc
device atkbd
The following example shows how to set the default, built-in keymap to jp.106.kbd.
device atkbdc
options ATKBD_DFLT_KEYMAP
makeoptions ATKBD_DFLT_KEYMAP=jp.106
device atkbd
In both cases, you also need to have following lines in /boot/device.hints.
hint.atkbdc.0.at="isa"
hint.atkbdc.0.port="0x060"
hint.atkbd.0.at="atkbdc"
hint.atkbd.0.irq="1"

kbdcontrol(1), atkbdc(4), psm(4), syscons(4), kbdmap(5), loader(8)
HISTORY
The atkbd driver first appeared in FreeBSD 3.1.
