[SOLVED] numlockx and Xvesa
madmax:
Hello Misalf:
--- Quote from: Misalf on August 23, 2015, 02:28:47 PM ---"not needed a dep of numlockx.tcz" means that there is no need to add this extension to the onboot list because it's a dep of numlockx.tcz and gets loaded anyway.
--- End quote ---
Thanks for the heads up. =-)
Now they are not loaded at boot up but there's been no change: numlockx won't work.
Cheers,
TC

Hi
Just woke up and finally did the Xvesa suggestion from Rich
--- Quote ---This is the newer Xvesa from Xorg 7.1 that supports the numlock LED
--- End quote ---
here is one way to get it ...if you don't like the bottom 2 lines just use your file manager to move those 2 new files into your packages directory
1)
--- Code: ---wget http://www.tinycorelinux.net/4.x/x86/tcz/Xvesa-7.1.tcz
md5sum Xvesa-7.1.tcz > Xvesa-7.1.tcz.md5.txt
TCEDIR=/mnt/`cat /etc/sysconfig/backup_device`/optional
cp Xvesa* $TCEDIR
--- End code ---
2) Assuming you have Xvesa.tcz in your "onboot" list
Click into Apps
click on Xvesa.tcz and remove it from your boot list
now left hand side scoll down and click on XVesa-7.1.tcz to select it
---so it appears in RH list
3) full reboot
with either numlockx in your onboot list or load it manually
4) For me, leds now work in Xvesa
toggle does not work for me, but numlock is already enabled as previously mentioned
good luck....don't forget to thank Rich if it works

trivia
When you run Apps update in the future, it will detect all local TCZs including this new one.
There is no need to do anything. And do not delete Xvesa.tcz please.

It now works 'as advertised', so to speak.
