I've seen the issue posted on a big number of forums but nobody seems to have a solution as of today. This works for me, outside of Wayland: alias scroll='xset led named "Scroll Lock"' Anyway, will continue lurking hoping that some day this issue is solved; this is a show stopper for anybody working with an external keyboard during the night, even if I don't need to see the keys I type, sometimes I need to find a particular key and this is just not working.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
