Bug#406912: tasksel-data: Should add numlockx to desktop

[Samuel Thibault <samuel.thibault@ens-lyon.org>]

Package: tasksel-data
Version: 2.63
Severity: minor

Hi,

After installing Debian for a desktop use, numlock is not set by
default, this is a pain for people who have to remember to set it each
time they log in, and they will eventually say "GNU/Linux sucks" just
because of this irritating behavior :) (real story).

For enabling numlock by default, the apparently currently preferred way
is to just install the numlockx package, which properly hooks into the X
session scripts.

I'd hence suggest to add the numlockx package to the desktop task.
