Description S. Burmeister 2011-02-16 20:22:18 UTC

Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.6.0) 
OS:                Linux

I see this on two different computers. When I log into KDE Num-Lock is enabled, yet as soon as I press SHIFT it is disabled. If I press shift while not being in KDE this does not happen.

German keyboard layout.

Reproducible: Always

Checked same problem on Fedora16.
kde 4.7.4-2
kernel 3.2.7-1

PS only Kate editor is not affected

Apparently this is a feature. To disable, go to settings->input devices->keyboard->advanced and set misc compatibility options->shift with numeric keypad works as in MS Windows

Thanks to maciek gajewski. Was very annoying.
