I have tested on a lenoevo T400 and I don't see any problems. I
have
tested it with libre office writer and libre office calc and also with
gedit. As I said before i don't see any problems. OS Fedora 22
workstation.
What I call a problem is that numlock is getting turned off
without my having intended that to happen. I want it on unless I actually
tell it otherwise.
Neither my eyes nor my fingers are what they once were. It's
possible that I'm brushing against something without knowing it -- but
not, I believe, anything so far from home position as the numlock key.
