Description Dominique Devriese 2004-01-17 20:35:26 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1.5)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages

Hi,

If you do ctrl+alt+shift+num_lock to enable mouse navigation using the keypad, and then go to KControl->peripherals->mouse->mouse navigation using keypad, then the setting is set as disabled, even though it is actually enabled.  Expected behaviour is that it would somehow query the X-server to see whether it is enabled or not.

This is a bit related to bug:72847 although it is a separate bug.

cheers

Hello! Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but this project has been unmaintained for many years so I am closing this bug. Kcontrol has been replaced by System Settings in Plasma. Please give the latest version of that a try, and open a new bug in "systemsettings" if you continue to have an issue. Thank you!
