Good afternoon!

I'm having a slight problem with PCBSD 0.7.5 beta on my laptop. Basically, when I load KDE, my function key "sticks". So, when I attempt to type on the keyboard, the "uiopjkl;m./" keys are mapped as number keys (the number pad). I hope you understand what I mean.

Anyway, I'm rather new to BSD and KDE, and I'm wondering if anyone knows a fix for this. If I start a new KDE session and then close it, the keys function normally. I've tried looking at the regional settings, keyboard settings, etc. but haven't found anything.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks! =)

My laptop did the same thing, I turned off the setting in KDE to set numlock at startup and it worked fine since then. Hope this helps
