NumPad problem

[Joseph Norton]

Hi David:

Sounds like you may have told setup to remap your keyboard (this is about
the only option you should skip in Slackware setup).  Anyway, here's
something that may help.  Look in your /etc/rc.d directory.  If you have a
file in there called 'rc.keymap' just delete it and this should fix the
problem.

Hope this helps.
