What distro is this? Never had this happen to me
Noah Rogers
Every single one, looks like linux just love overwriting my BIOS settings and disables it the moment it boots up. Happens on my 2 computers.
John Hill
Bullshit
Jaxon Cook
why would I lie about that
Justin Phillips
it's not linux. it's your computer. i have tried a lot of distros and never ever have this happened.
Bentley Anderson
but it happened on 2 computers user
thats the same as it happening on all computers

Works under Windows, so it's Linux fault. Just because It Works On Your Machine™ doesn't mean it's not broken.
Nicholas Flores
Just because you can't install it properly doesn't mean it's broken
Just out of interest what distros have you tried?

>Just because you can't install it properly doesn't mean it's broken
lol, installing most distros consists in just pressing next.
Ubuntu, Mint, Solus, Manjaro and Debian. Just google "linux numlock startup", I'm not alone. There's even a list of workarounds on the Arch's wiki for a bunch of distros.
Matthew Cox
Didn't know how fortunate I was. For some reason it just works for me, even though numlockx isn't installed and people seem to experience these problems for my distro.

>Just google "linux numlock startup"
Just googled it. Everything has to do with numlock on the login screen.

Referring to this? Please don't tell me you think these examples are distros...
Grayson Gomez
Not a problem on distros that use systemd's keymap settings.

On systems that load the BIOS on to NVRAM, Linux and every single other unix-like kernel based OS I've ever used, loads into that address space EFFECTIVELY OVERWRITING THE BIOS IMAGE. If your BIOS settings "stay put" after boot, then your CHIPSET is addressing the bios chip as part of NVRAM on startup. Your BIOS runs in place on the EPROM it was written to. Linux does not (and cannot) load into that (read only) memory area, so you keep your BIOS settings.
This is a hardware issue. I fixed it on my systems by not using the keypad to enter passwords at login. If you are able to enter your entire password with just the keypad, Then I dunno...

There's no point in arguing with Linux zealots, the issue is never their operating system, even if something works on others.

i tried to get japanese input and an on screen keyboard working on manjaro and a fw other distros but it was way too difficuLt. on windows i jus add a inout method on settings and then press win space to toggle jp.

This. I've got two old shitter computers I got from work that run opensuse leap without any issue, but don't get me fucking started on that laptop of mine. Linux is just like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're gonna get.
Aaron Powell
Software error.

Yeah, it's never your precious system. After all Linux desktop isn't a broken piece of shit, right?
