Hi,
I have grub2 to launch in dual boot : debian-unstable and windows 7.

When starting my desktop PC the following step appeared:
BIOS launch (DELL) : numlock is active
grub2 launch and deactivate numlock
And then for any OS load, I have to manually enable the numlock key and it is annoying for passwords !

Linux 3.2.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.2.54-2 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Debian unstable
Debian package : grub 2.00-22

If you want more info, feel free to ask

Regards,

Cultien Charles <yaugzebul>
