why can't I use NumPad keys?

Is it just in linux or in any OS? It would be very comfortable for me to use mouse+NumPad instead of mouse+"w,s;q,e;a,d;r,f" keys.

I use the arrow keys to navigate and I'd REALLY like to be able to use the numpad for a few "closer" buttons. I hate having to move around searching for keys in the middle of a fight...

The numpad keys should work fine. They may show up as regular number keys though. Right now Vendetta does not make the distinction between the numpad keys and the same non-numpad keys.

...except they probably don't work fine in Linux, for some strange reason.

They _might_ work if you have NumLock on, but then you'll just be hitting numbers. I'll check into that.

Just cheked under Mac Os X, Num keys work fine. It is sad they do not work under linux.
