Ubuntu - Numeric Keypad Not Working

Aahhooyyy!!

Sometimes your numeric keyboard goes dead?

This often happens when using VNC that changes the keypad configuration, setting it with mouse functions.

To make it work again simply follow the steps below:

1. Go to System > Preferences > Keyboard
2. Access the tab Mouse Keys
3. Disable "Pointer can be controlled using the keypad"

You are all set now to use back your numeric keypad!

Abraaaço!
