By default, the numpad is not activated when you arrive to login window. To activate it, you need to install a package. The example below is shown with Linux Mint Cinnamon.
- Open a Terminal;
- Type
sudo apt install numlockxto install the package; - Once installed, just confirm in the Terminal with:
sudo numlockx on; - (Linux Mint) - Open the Login Window manager with:
sudo lightdm-settings; - In Settings tab, verify that Activate numlock is checked.
Now, numpad will always be on each time you start your computer.
