D’oh! My numlock issue was . . .

D’oh!

Because of the placement of the ThinkPad NumLk key, it seems as though you would have to press the function (Fn) key. So I did that. Didn’t work. Then I tried it in conjunction with many other keys: Ctrl, Shift, Alt, etc., etc. A student came up and did the same things. Couldn’t budge it.

After perusing the deeply buried documentation on the Status lights, to turn off NumLk you simply type: SHIFT NumLk. No Fn.

Obvious. But I have seen other wrestle with this in exactly the same way I did!

Thanks for bearing with me . . .
