and add it you your VM config, so it's run every time you start your window manager.
I'm not 100% sure, but it might as well work if you add it to ~/.xinitrc, or ~/.xsession, depending how you start X (on my system, one is link to another).
P.S. now you both can thank me for this

expl said:This is not fluxbox issue, X11 turns off keypad every start, just some desktop managers turn it back on (like your mentioned gnome). Been like this since I can remember (XFree86 times). Isn't a big problem, a _single_ Numlock press will bring it back (no need to hammer it).
