Hello folks,
I'm one of those people who switched their X server to allow shift+numpad with switched-off numlock to navigate through text and input fields (especially marking things!). Since my last system upgrade, which even upgraded Xorg, I miss this (for me very important!) behavior.
The problem only occurs in my main Desktop environment, which is Enlightenment E17. On KDE 4.3, everything works as it should. I think this has something to do with KDE-internal settings.
It worked so nice until the last upgrade. To get it work the first time, I disabled evdev.
My xorg.conf is this one.

The important line, which is not working anymore is
Option "XkbTypes" "default+numpad(microsoft)"
Any help is appreciated!

Well, today there was a xkbutils and hal-Update, but not fix of this bug.
I need help on this topic anymore. Didn't found any way out of it yet ... and its really handicapping when I must work without my normal keyboard layout. It worked so nice in the past, then one update came of one module involved, since then I can't get it to work anymore.
