  • Jonathan Thornburg:

    equal '=' key on numpad

and suggests a patch to fix it.

Another data point: on my Lenovo Thinkpad T580, the numeric keypad's
'=' key works fine under 7.5/amd64 -stable.  (So far as I recall, it
also worked fine under older releases going back to 6.9/amd64.)

I'll try to test George's suggested patch sometime in the next 10 days
to see what (if any) effect this pacch has on my T580 numeric-keypad '='
key.

ciao,
