Bug#444480: xserver-xorg-input-kbd: LEDs no longer work

[Frédéric Brière <fbriere@fbriere.net>]

Package: xserver-xorg-input-kbd
Version: 1:1.2.2-3
Severity: normal

After stopping my X session and starting another today, I noticed that
my keyboard LEDs were no longer working.  They light up when I switch
back to console mode, but are turned off again when I switch back to X,
regardless of the current *Lock states.

>From the timing of my last session and my upgrades, I would say that
this occurred with the past month or so.  (It would certainly agree
with the 1.2.2 release.)  I tried downgrading, but the conflict with
xserver-xorg-core was a bit too much for me.

And yes, I did check xorg.conf to make sure it said "kbd".  I'm
attaching it just in case, especially since I'm using a grp_led option.
