Marcus,
Get numlockx-1.0.tar.gz and save it to a local directory. Uncompress
the files via "tar xvzf numlockx-1.0.tar.gz". Change to the newly
created numlockx-1.0 directory. Become the superuser, root, (i.e. su
). Follow the README directions.
An excerpt is presented here:
QUICK INSTALL :
First of all, make sure this package isn't already included in your
distribution ( e.g. Mandrake includes it ). If you distribution already
includes NumLockX, use their package instead ( it needn't be necessarily
called NumLockX, it may be e.g. part of some other package ).
Otherwise, do :
./configure
make
make install
make xsetup
make xinitrc
The later steps ( ./configure, make, etc.) are what you need to do.
That's all there is to it!
Numlock should start for each user.
