Hi Vojtech,
I wondered why numlock LED goes off during boot process, even though I ask BIOS to turn on;
atkbd.c
/* * If the get ID command failed, we check if we can at least set the LEDs on * the keyboard. This should work on every keyboard out there. It also turns * the LEDs off, which we want anyway. */ param[0] = 0; if (ps2_command(ps2dev, param, ATKBD_CMD_SETLEDS)) return -1;
What is the rationale *why* we want LEDS off anyway?
Thanks,
