Re: Capslock / Numlock indicator not work in KDE (& sddm)
For some reason, both Jimmy and Luca insist on connecting this to the
wrong problem:

Everything Luca and Jimmy are mentioning is about the state of
numlock when sddm or plasma start.
This is *not* what Franklin or I are talking about. We are talking
about Caps/Num Lock being at the state they should be, as set by
pressing the relevant keys. It is only the visual indicators which are
not working -- the systray icons in plasma, and the caps-is-on warning
in the lock or login screen.
