I believe this has been covered before, but I thought I would do a quick one to help others do what I finally got around to bothering with today.
In order to set your install so that your numlock defaults to on, in LMDE with Cinnamon (and quite a few other distros) you will have to install a command (numlockx)
Do this:
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get install numlockx
-Click on 'Add'
-in the box next to 'command' paste in the following:
Code: Select all
/usr/bin/numlockx on
-Press 'save' then close the main window.
You're all done
