TITLE:              PTF636 - Keypad fix for Motif Text Widget
DOCUMENT ID:        TID300110
DOCUMENT REVISION:  C
DATE:               25JAN95
ALERT STATUS:       Yellow
INFORMATION TYPE:   Symptom Solution
README FOR:         PTF636

PRODUCT and VERSION:
UnixWare 1.1

ABSTRACT:

This PTF enables the use of numeric keypad to enter numbers within 
Motif Text Widget when NumLock or Shift key is pressed.  Without this 
patch, you can not use numeric keypad to enter numbers within Motif 
Text Widgets.  Instead of numbers you will get the corresponding 
character on the key (e.g., left arrow instead of 4) if NumLock key 
is on.  Instead of numbers you will be selecting (high-lighting) text 
if Shift is pressed.  PTF636 requires either UnixWare 1.1.1 or 
UnixWare 1.1.2 to be installed on the system. 

SYMPTOM

Problems with Caps lock pressed in Motif Text Widget or Numlock keys not
working.

 SOLUTION

Apply the ptf636 file.


Installation Instructions:

DATATYPE: datastream

    on your machine.

2.  Read the release notes contained in this file.

    commands:

Solution Specifics

1. General Description
----------------------

These release notes acquaint you with the contents of UnixWare 
PTF636 - fix for Numeric Keypad problems within Motif Text Widget.

2. New Features
---------------

PTF636 contains an updated version of the Motif library
(/usr/X/lib/libXm.so.1.2, /usr/X/lib/libXm.a) and X Tool Kits library
(/usr/X/lib/libXt.so.1, /usr/X/lib/libXt.a).

This PTF enables the use of numeric keypad to enter numbers within 
Motif Text Widget when NumLock or Shift key is pressed.  Without this 
patch, you can not use numeric keypad to enter numbers within Motif 
Text Widgets.  Instead of numbers you will get the corresponding 
character on the key (e.g., left arrow instead of 4) if NumLock 
key is on.  Instead of numbers you will be selecting (high-lighting) 
text if Shift is pressed.

This PTF fixes another bug such that it is now possible to have CapsLock 
key defined as ShiftLock Key and press ShiftLock and NumLock keys at the 
same time to get the NumLock keys (numbers on the numeric keypad)

3. Software Notes and Recommendations
-------------------------------------

PTF636 requires either UnixWare 1.1.1 or UnixWare 1.1.2 to be installed 
on the system.  If you choose to remove (un-install) PTF636 and restore 
your system to its original condition, please enter the following command:

     # pkgrm ptf636

The "pkgrm" command is the recommended method to restore your system. 
However, if "pkgrm" fails the following steps will enable you to manually
remove PTF636 and restore your system.

Enter:
# cp /var/sadm/pkg/ptf636/save/usr/X/lib/libXm.so.1.2 /usr/X/lib/libXm.so.1.2
# cp /var/sadm/pkg/ptf636/save/usr/X/lib/libXm.a /usr/X/lib/libXm.a
# cp /var/sadm/pkg/ptf636/save/usr/X/lib/libXt.so.1 /usr/X/lib/libXt.so.1
# cp /var/sadm/pkg/ptf636/save/usr/X/lib/libXt.a /usr/X/lib/libXt.a

4. Hardware Notes and Recommendations
-------------------------------------

     NONE.

5. Installation Instructions
----------------------------

Enter:

     # pkgadd -d diskette1

(replace diskette1 with the appropriate device name) to install the fix.

After the installation, existing graphical sessions might be terminated. 
Graphical users need to re-login to the system to make certain that newly
installed libraries are in effect.
