Version: (using KDE 4.1.1) Compiler: gcc 4.3.2 OS: Linux Installed from: Unlisted Binary Package In KDE3, there used to be a way to control the behaviour of the NumLock key during startup and make it on or off by default. I couldn't find a way to do the same thing under systemsettings, and find it better than adding numlockx in Autostart.
It is already available: System settings -> keyboard & mouse -> keyboard -> NumLock on KDE startup
I haven't been able to find Keyboard in Keyboard&Mouse in 4.2 or svn trunk for some time anymore.
Probably it is an issue on your specific installation because the option is still present on 4.2 and trunk.

@Raphael: please, would you like to post a screenshot of your "keyboard & mouse" settings window? You can even try to start the kcm module typing: kcmshell4 keyboard If it doesn't start, it means that you don't have it installed.

@FiNeX: I've attached my settings window. It looks the same both for trunk and 4.2 (Arch Linux). Typing kcmshell4 keyboard in trunk, I get kcmshell(4195)/kcmshell (kdelibs) locateModule: "keyboard" should not be loaded. In this case, what needs to be done to active/compile the module?
It depends from your packager or, if you have compiled kde from trunk, maybe you've not installed all the components. You can ask for a more detailed help on the new kde forum or on IRC channel.
I'm using trunk and the problem persists. Initial investigation in the code suggests keyboard.desktop in $KDEDIR/share/kde4/services is loaded as a menu id and not as a desktop file. If I rename it to something like 'foo.desktop' and run kbuildsycoca4 it works fine. Should this bug be reopened or should I file a new bug report?
Actually, this bug is in fact bug 169710. Marking as DUPLICATE (don't know if DUPLICATE bugs should be marked as CLOSED or RESOLVED). *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 169710 ***
