So after years of waiting for someone to write a utility I have found
one that enables Numlock on X startup. It is quite simple but must be
compiled and installed.
The program is called numlockx (go figure) and you can find the utility
on freshmeat.net, but it is so small I'll include it with this email.
I am running RH8.0 and did the following:
../configure
make
make install
make xsetup (configured /etc/X11/xdm/Xsetup_0 to run the utility on startup)
I know some of you die-hards won't want it, but since I use the keypad
quite a bit I find it very annoying to have to remember to hit numlock
first!
