+This little thingy allows you to start X with NumLock turned on
+( which is a feature that a lot of people seem to miss and nobody
+really knew how to achieve this ). If you use KDE or slim, you
+don't need this.
-Depending on how you start X, you might/will want to modify both
-/etc/X11/xdm/Xsetup_0 and your $HOME/.xinitrc files.
-
-Add this to the END of /etc/X11/xdm/Xsetup_0
-
- # Turn NumLock on (using numlockx)
- if [ -x /usr/bin/numlockx ]; then
- /usr/bin/numlockx
- fi
-
-Add this to the BEGINNING of $HOME/.xinitrc
-
- # Turn NumLock on (using numlockx)
- if [ -x /usr/bin/numlockx ]; then
- /usr/bin/numlockx
- fi
-
-Note that $HOME/.xinitrc is just a copy of /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.$SOMETHING,
-where $SOMETHING is your preferred window manager. The xwmconfig(1) binary
-makes this copy when it is run. To summarize, if you use xwmconfig(1) to
-change your window manager/desktop environment after editing it for numlockx,
-you will need to make the edits again. Alternatively, you can make the
-numlockx edit to the "master" files in /etc/X11/xinit/ for each of the
-installed window managers, and this will allow you to change window managers
-without losing the numlockx functionality. However, be aware that an upgrade
-to any of the window managers involved might/will overwrite your changes.
+See README.SLACKWARE for configuration information.
