Using RH5.1 and fvwm2.0.46. The NumLock key is causing me some grief.
In Vim, when I turn on the NumLock key (LED is on), my mouse clicks no
longer work _with Vim_. i.e. the xterm no longer receives the mouse clicks.
When I turn off the NumLock LED, things work fine.
xmodmap -pke | fgrep -i numlock gave me
keycode 77 = NumLock Pointer_EnableKeys
xmodmap alone told me that NumLock was Mod2.
Aha! Seems the pointer and NumLock key are somehow related.
How do I get around this?
xmodmap -e 'remove Mod2' will get rid of the modifier? Will my LED still
light up and can I use the digits on the numeric keypad?
xmodmap -e 'keycode 77 = NumLock' will get rid of the pointer dependency?
Nothing seems to be working.
I am not sure, I am just grasping at straws here. Would appreciate a short
tutorial from some guru out there.
Thanks,
Vikas
P.S.
The Pointer_EnableKeys is intriguing though. What does it do? Does it mean
I can control the pointer (mouse) with the keyboard? How does it work? How
can I re-bind it to some other key?
