Num and Caps not working

Question

Num and Caps not working

Musikermomo opened this issue 7 years ago · comments

Thats my config file for testing purposes:
led=x|num event=read device=sdb
led=x|caps event=write device=sdb
led=x|scroll event=both device=sdb

Only the scroll lock led is flashing.
I'm on Arch and Openbox.

Config expects one LED per line of config. Is your configuration file like this?
I did also notice that some LEDs, even though X.org does state support, I can't set them for some reason.

My config file has one LED per line, sorry for the bad textformatting.
All LEDs work in console mode, but unfortunately not in the graphical console (tty7).

I'll mark this issue as a bug. At some point I'll switch from X.org library to evdev for setting these as that way we'll have support for both Wayland based compositors and X.org. Sorry for the inconvenience.
